11.3 Installing the JBoss Application Server and the MySQL Database

  1. If you are planning on using a physical DVD or CD-ROMs to install the Identity Manager User Application, insert the installation media into your drive, which must be accessible from within your VM. Continue with Step 6.

  2. If you are using ISO files, disconnect the CD-ROM device from your VM by selecting Removable Devices > CD-ROM > Disconnect from the VM menu.

  3. Reconfigure your VM to use the Identity Manager 3.5.1 ISO file (Identity_Manager_3_5_1_DVD.iso.) by selecting Removable Devices > CD-ROM 1 > Edit.

  4. From the VM menu, browse to and select the ISO file in the Connection -- Use ISO image section.

  5. From the VM menu, reconnect the CD-ROM device to your VM by selecting Removable Devices > CD-ROM 1 > Connect. This causes the Identity Manager 3.5.1 ISO to automatically mount the CD-ROM and open a file browser.
