# Run isetup to Install and Configure a New Server

Follow the steps mentioned below to run `isetup` to Install and Configure a New Server.

1. Log in to USS by using the iadmin user ID.

2. Change to the temp directory created when you processed the run file.

3. Run the `isetup` program. Enter 1 on the Welcome screen.

4. Provide the full path name of the media for the product or press Enter to accept the default.

5. Enter the z/OS Userid for Server administration or press Enter to accept the default. For more information, see OPSYS Server Administrator ID (iadmin).

6. Enter the Server Administration ID and password. The password, which does not display, is stored in encrypted form. For more information, see PTH Administrator ID.

7. Enter the Server System Support userid or press Enter to accept the default. For more information, see ibi WebFOCUS Reporting Server System ID (iserver).

8. You are now shown the default values of the server environment variables and port number.

9. If you do not want to accept the default values, skip to the next step. If you do accept the default values, you still have to respond to two more prompts:

   1. If you are unsure where your `libjvm.so` is installed, contact your System Administrator.

   2. Contact ibi Customer Support to receive your site's Customer ID.

      Now proceed to step 11.

10. Select N to change any properties that you wish.

    Name | Description
    --- | ---
    EDAHOME PDS name | Fully qualified name of a PDS that contains executable modules necessary for running the WebFOCUS Reporting Server.
    EDAHOME unit | UNIT value for EDAHOME PDS.
    EDAHOME volume | VOLUME value for EDAHOME PDS.
    EDAHOME SMS rule | SMS allocation rule for EDAHOME PDS.
    CICSLIB PDS name | Fully qualified name of a PDS that contains executable modules necessary for running the CICS adapter.
    EDACONF PDS name | Fully qualified name of a PDS that contains configuration data files.
    EDAPRFU path | The location on the disk where the product looks for the user profiles and the `admin.cfg` file.
    APPROOT path | The location on the disk where the product looks for applications.
    HOMEAPPS path | The location on the disk where the product looks for the use of home applications.
    JDK_HOME path | Full USS path name to your Java installation. This variable and value is stored in `edaenv.cfg`. Server startup logic looks for `lib/server/libjvm.so` under this directory. If it is not found, the Server's jscom listener does not start, and certain java-based adapters do not run. Note: If you do not know this location, contact your system administrator.
    Customer ID | The customer ID provided with your WebFOCUS software.
    HTTP Listener port | The HTTP Listener port. Default: 8101. This is the second of the seven consecutive port numbers that must be open and available for the server's IP based services.

11. All installation and configuration options are displayed. One last prompt asks you to Accept and Proceed, Start Over, or Quit.

12. After a successful installation, you receive this last prompt:

You can start the Server, for initial testing purposes, by responding Y, but for production Servers, it is recommended that you start via submitting `istart` from your EDACONF PDS.
