Installing Application Workflow Manager into IBM Rational Developer for System z (RDz)

The Application Workflow Manager component provides all the capabilities and tools to develop and maintain Application Workflow models. These models allow you to integrate mainframe tools and processes directly into Enterprise Developer.

Before installing the Application Workflow Manager Update Site 2.3, check if an older Application Workflow Manager feature installation exists, and if so, un-install it.

1. Start the RDz product with administrator's privileges.
2. Open Help > About IBM Rational Developer for Systemz.
3. Click Installation Details.
4. If you see plugins "Application Workflow Manager" and "AWM RDz Integration" (version 2.2.*), select them and click Uninstall....
5. Restart RDz if prompted to do so.

An Enterprise Developer Connect license enables you to install and use the Application Workflow Manager component in the RDz product. The following instructions show how you can do this:

1. Install Enterprise Developer and a license for Enterprise Developer Connect.
2. Copy the AWMUpdateSite.zip file from %ProgramFiles(x86)%\Micro Focus\Enterprise Developer\installer to a temporary folder.
3. Start the RDz product with administrator's privileges.
4. In the IDE, click Help > Install New Software.
5. On the Install dialog box, click Add on the row for the Work with field.
6. On the Add Repository dialog box, click Archive.
7. Navigate to the location of the AWMUpdateSite.zip file, select the file, click Open and then click OK.

   This loads the Application Workflow Manager component in the Install dialog box.

8. Under the Application Workflow Manager node, check the Application Workflow Manager and AWM RDz Integration items.
9. Click Next and follow the wizard instructions to complete the installation.
10. Restart RDz if prompted to do so.
