Installation guide

5-6 BEA Products Installation Guide
Guidelines for Component Selection
Use the following guidelines when you specify values for the COMPONENT_PATHS data-value
name:
z When you specify a product component to be installed, all subcomponents that are
installed by default in a complete installation are also installed. For example, the following
entry installs both WebLogic Server and the examples:
<data-value name="COMPONENT_PATHS" value="WebLogic Server" />
Note: The Web Server Plug-Ins subcomponent is not installed by default. You must specify
the component/subcomponent combination to install them.
z To install multiple components, separate the components with a bar (|). Do not leave a
space before or after the bar. For example, to install WebLogic Server,
Workshop for
WebLogic Platform
, and the subcomponents that are installed by default, enter the
following line in the file:
<data-value name="COMPONENT_PATHS" value="WebLogic Server|Workshop for
WebLogic Platform" />
z To specify subcomponents, you must specify a component/subcomponent combination for
each entry. For example, to install WebLogic Server and BEA WebLogic Platform and the
subcomponents that are installed by default, enter the following line in the file:
<data-value name="COMPONENT_PATHS" value="WebLogic Server/Server|
WebLogic Server/Server Examples|WebLogic Server/Workshop for WebLogic
Platform" />
z If you do not include the COMPONENT_PATHS data-value name in the silent.xml file, the
complete WebLogic Server, Workshop for WebLogic Platform, WebLogic Integration, and
WebLogic Portal products are installed. The Web Server Plug-ins subcomponent of
WebLogic Server is not installed by default.
Note: The installation program performs dependency checking to ensure that all components
that provide functionality on which other components depend for proper operation are
installed. These dependencies are visible during graphical and console mode
installations. The same dependencies are enforced during silent installation: components
on which other components depend are installed even if they are not explicitly referenced
in a silent script.
