Installing MCM

[ray.wurlod]

Before you even get there, did you try to install 7.5.1 in the same location that you installed 7.0?

[dsdoubt]

Different location. I guess it should be the issue with MCM being not installed properly, or its service not started.

It's about the service, that's what the user request is all about. And without it running, you can't switch.

I found in some other post that the name of the service is 'DataStage Multi-Client Manager Service', am I right?
I couldnt find that at all. Is there any way I can install the service alone and start it?

Installing the Multi-Client Manager
You can install the Multi-Client Manager alone or as part of the upgrade process during an IBM Information Server suite installation. This topic describes how to install it alone.

Before you begin

You must have administrator access to the system to complete this task.
At least one WebSphere DataStage and WebSphere QualityStage client must be installed on the computer where you install the Multi-Client Manager.
Procedure

To install the Multi-Client Manager:

Log on as an administrator to the system where you installed the clients.
In the top-level directory of the IBM Information Server DVD, CD, or downloaded installation image, open the MultiClientManager directory and double-click install.exe.
Follow the instructions in the installation wizard to install the Multi-Client Manager.



I just read about this . Are you looking for this?

Thanks

The information given was related to V8. But the same holds good for the V7.5.1. The setup.exe can be found in client Cd ..\Ascential DS Client v7.5.1\DataStage Client\MultiClientManager
