Table 5-1 Installation Procedure using Oracle Universal Installer

Screen	Response
Welcome	Click Next.
File Locations	The Source section of the screen is where you specify the source location that the Oracle Universal Installer must use to install WebSphere MQ. You need not edit the file specification in the Path field. The default setting for this field points to the installer file on your WebSphere MQ installation media. The Path field in the Destination section of the File Locations screen is where you specify the destination for your installation. You need not edit the path specification in the Path field. The default setting for this field points to `ORACLE_HOME`. After you set the fields in the File Locations screen as necessary, click Next to continue. After loading the necessary information from the installation media, the Oracle Universal Installer displays the Available Products screen.
Available Products	Select Oracle Database 10g and click Next to continue. The Oracle Universal Installer displays the Installation Types screen.
Installation Types	Select Custom and click Next to continue. The Oracle Universal Installer displays the Available Product Components screen.
Available Product Components	Use the check boxes to indicate the product components that you want to install. By default, all the available components are selected for you. You need to deselect the components that you do not want by clicking on the check boxes. Click Next to continue, and the Oracle Universal Installer displays the Where is the WebSphere MQ Queue Manager Installed ? screen.
Where is the WebSphere MQ Queue Manager Installed ?	Select Local if the MQM runs on the same system as the gateway, or select Remote if the MQM runs on a different system than the gateway. Click Next to continue.
Local WebSphere MQ Queue Manager Name Screen	If you choose Local for your MQM in the Where is the WebSphere MQ Queue Manager Installed? screen, then the Local WebSphere MQ Queue Manger Name screen is displayed. Type in the local WebSphere MQ queue manager name in the Queue Manager field. Click Next to continue, and the Oracle Universal Installer displays the Summary screen.
Remote WebSphere MQ Queue Manager Name Screen	If you choose Remote for your MQM in the Where is the WebSphere MQ Queue Manager Installed? screen, then the Remote WebSphere MQ Queue Manager Name screen is displayed. Enter the name for the remote WebSphere queue manger in the Queue Manager field, and also enter the WebSphere MQ channel name in the Channel field. For information about server connection channels, refer to the IBM publication about WebSphere MQ Clients, or ask your WebSphere MQ system administrator for the channel definition of the queue manager to which you want the gateway to connect. The definition syntax is: CHANNEL_NAME/PROTOCOL/server_address[(port)] where `CHANNEL_NAME` and `PROTOCOL` must be uppercase, `server_address` is the TCP/IP host name of the server. The port value is optional and is the TCP/IP port number that the server is on. If you do not provide a port number, then WebSphere MQ uses the port number that is specified in the `QM.INI` file. If no value is specified in the `QM.INI` file, then WebSphere MQ uses the port number that is identified in the TCP/IP services file for the WebSphere MQ service name. If this entry in the services file does not exist, then the default value of `1414` is used. It is important that the port number that is used by the client and the port number that is used by the server listener program be the same. For example: `CHANNEL1/TCP/Sales` Click Next to continue. The Oracle Universal Installer displays the Summary screen.
Installation Summary	The Installation Summary screen enables you to review a tree list of options and components for this installation. Click Install to display the Installation Status screen.
Installation Status	The Installation Status screen shows the status of the installation as it proceeds, as well as the location of the Oracle Universal Installer log file for this installation session. Be patient as the Oracle Universal Installer processes the software installation. Depending on the CPU and hard drive in your system, the installation process might take some time to be completed.
End of Installation	The final screen of the Oracle Universal Installer is the End of Installation screen. Assuming that your installation was successful, you can click Exit to exit the installer.
