MQseries stage add to installation

During installation the checkbox 'Install WebSphere MQ Plug-in'
(WebSphere MQ Server) was left unchecked. However we do need the MQ
stage (not the new connector).

How can we add this to the current installation? (Information Server
8.5)

In the pre 8.x world, you'd have to repeat the installation and it would go into "maintenance mode", allowing you to add any missed optional plug-ins as one of the options. I don't believe that's the case for 8.x but unfortunately don't know off the top of my head what the new procedure might be.

If no-one pops in here with instructions, contact your official support provider and then let us know the answer.

Yes, I was hoping that would still work, but when you re-start the installation program, you can add tiers or add products, but unfortunately it does not bring you back to that MQ plug-in checkbox.

There is a utility dscompinst to install or uninstall plugins after the initial installation.

You can add the MQseries plug-in using:

..\IBM\InformationServer\Server\DSComponents\bin\dscompinst -username <admin-user> -password <password> -locale en_US -install -force ..Install_executables\InfoSvr_v8_5_Wdws_64\is-suite\payloads\DataStageCommon\PluginStages\payload\mqseries.jar -log \tmp\installMQ.log
