Installing IBM BPM V 8.0 in an unsupported OS

It is NOT recommended that you install any IBM software in a non-supported OS. If you encounter any problem with the software you will not be able to reach IBM Support for help unless you install it in a supported OS.

Before version 8, the way to do this was to add -OPT disableOSPrereqChecking="true" to the response file.  In version 8, we still have the same property but it is placed in a different location. To disable OS prerequisite checking in version 8:

1. If Installation Manager is already installed do (a) else do (b)
1. Go to IM_install_root/eclipse/configuration
2. Go to Installer_extract_path/IM/configuration

2. Modify config.ini
3. Append in the file: disableOSPrereqChecking=true

4. Save
5. Restart your installation
