IBM Process Center didn't get installed while installing Process Server - designer

I have installed IBM Process Server but there is no Process Center installed. I need to download Process Designer once Process Center is in place. But for some reasons I am unable to find Process Center. I tried to create a profile from a response file but that is failing. I guess while creating the process center profile all the artifacts like DB2 databases, etc will be installed. I don't know how to explain but if my question is understood then please do help.
Thanks,

IID install media contains a cut down version of the IBM Process Manager Advanced server runtime. This runtime can create a Process Server profile only. There is no way to create a Process Center profile. This seems rather odd, since, Process Center is something that is used mainly in the development world. If you must use Process Center from IID, take these steps:
Install IID without any test environment.
Install IBM Process Manager and choose to create a Process Center profile at the time of installation. This is the quickest way to create a fully functional server runtime.
From IID, create a server of type IBM Process Server v7.5. Point to the directory where IBM Process Manager was installed (C:\IBM\BPM\v7.5 by default).

MarkLogic 10 - configure App Server, Forest and Database from remote location on the server

I am looking for full automation right from configuring App Server, Forest, and Database. I found way to configure MarkLogic through configuration program as per https://docs.marklogic.com/guide/admin-api/configure
I am looking for a way that can be integrated into the build process as a part of automation which will take care of this one-time configuration for MarkLogic 10.

I am accessing them through vsphere client. I don't find it that tough but the initial error is so interrupting
I am attaching snpas below. Can anyone tell me why it is can't partition the disk

How to develop with WebSphere 8.5 traditional on OS X

Does anyone have any idea how this can be done?
It's my understanding that WebSphere 8.5 traditional is not compatible or will not run on OSX. I am looking for solutions for developers to develop with a WebSphere 8.5 traditional server locally.
Could we setup some servers on a windows machine so they can be used remotely during development?
I downloaded the Eclipse plugin but it gives me the warning saying OS X is not compatible with WebSphere traditional and to give it a remote server address. I tried to point eclipse to a server on a windows PC but it still wants a runtime installation directory.
I found a single thread on WASDev with a similar question talking about runtime stubs with a dead link.
I tried using a liberty server but I get nothing but null pointer exceptions and JMX errors, I don't think this is a valid alternative in my corporate environment.
For developing against WebSphere traditional on OSX, you could try Docker! We've published developer edition versions of 8.5.5.9 and 9.0.0.0, see:
https://developer.ibm.com/wasdev/blog/2016/06/15/websphere-traditional-ibm-http-server-docker-hub/
https://hub.docker.com/r/ibmcom/websphere-traditional/
The Dockerfiles used to produce these images are here, should you want to try building your own instead:
https://github.com/WASdev/ci.docker.websphere-traditional
However, your question is more specific to getting the tools working.
The last I read (and I'll try to confirm/update the answer when I do find it), is that the stubs are part of the full product install for RAD (selectable via Installation Manager).
You're correct that traditional WAS doesn't run on OSX. Remote servers are an option but traditional WAS is considered by some developers to be heavy and slow to restart, so your developers might appreciate something local and more nimble. Liberty is supposed to run on OSX, and things that run on Liberty -usually- will run on traditional, so getting to the bottom of your Liberty problems might be useful. If you haven't already, posting your question on WASDev might reach someone that has a better answer than this one.

Disable Direct Update for worklight6.1 development platform

Right now i am developing an app on remote DEV server. Every time when i update the code (js,html,css etc) then test on the device locally. There is a popup to force me to update the app. But my app need to connect DEV server for testing some backend feature like login.
DEV server is a remote Websphere running WL6.1 for development purpose. Why i need it because my app connect to some web services like Auth server via internal environment (actually is VPN). And those services i cannot set up easily in local environment. That makes using localhost for development is not really possible.
My problem is feeling the development process not really handy. Every time i change the code and want to run on the devices. I need to upload the .wlapp via console. It takes time! Everyday i change the code thousands time. That's why i need a solution.
And now i am seeking for 2 possible ways:
Auto push the .wlapp to remote server when i run and build. Can ANT do that? i read the Doc and find it's a bit of complicated.
Disable Direct Update. Actually i do a tricky hack inside worklight.js to override this feature. But i think it is not a good solution. So, is there any server config can switch the that off?
And i read this thread IBM Worklight - How to disable Direct Update?
Not working.
From what you are describing, things seem to work exactly as they should.
You have your local Worklight Development Server (that's the Worklight Studio plug-in you've installed in your Eclipse).
You have a remote server - here I am presuming this is actually some application server with Worklight Server deployed on it (that is, not the plug-in, but an actual installation of the server component) as well as your deployed project's .war file.
If that's not your setup, you need to think again about your 'testing setup'.
Auto push the .wlapp file to remote server. So the dev server always
keep the latest resource. Not to force me "update" the older version
on the server.
No. You can't do this. You need to manually build your app with the correct connectivity settings for the remote server via Run As > Build Settings and Remote Target.
In addition to the native project that will now contain these connectivity settings for the actual app, you will also have a .wlapp file in the bin folder. You will need to manually deploy it each time you're changing your app's contents. That's why you do development testing in the local development server... when moving to a remote server, that's for QA/UAT/PROD purposes usually.
Just disable this annoying feature in DEV environment.
You will need to do this in both servers via their respective Worklight Console as described in the question you've linked to, so that once you deploy the .wlapp file, it will not send a Direct Update request.
Instead, you'll need to manually re-install the app each time.
I suspect you didn't do this action on the remote server?
If you did, then you need to explain your setup, as the only thing you've wrote about was its name... "dev".
No. You need to manually deploy the .wlapp to your remote server.

how to setup worklight on public http server

I am building worklight project using eclipse environment when i run the project , i need to connect my tablet to local network then only i works for me for all the server updates and all.
I just want to move worklight server on http server which i can access using http://publicurl/anyprject which runs on apache. Now i want to work on eclipse but whenever i deploy the project it should deploy on public so that i can access it from anywhere.
Just tell me the process and what the thing i need to move on public server.
Since you've come here to ask a question, please also take a moment to write properly structured and coherent sentences in English. This will only benefit everyone and you will get a better answer, and faster too.
Try the following:
Instead of choosing Build All and Deploy, try choosing Build for Remote Server; there you should input the external (public) IP address of your machine. Next, run the generated project in your device. This should allow it to connect to the Worklight Server.
Note that both the Worklight Server (or rather, the machine that hosts it) and the device must be on the same network, in this case - connected to the public Internet.
Based on your comment, you can:
I would seriously try to open your own machine to public access
If not possible, I would try to move to develop on the Linux machine instead
If not possible, then you must install Worklight Server on the Linux machine and whenever you make changes to the project - deploy the updated .war, .wlapp and .adapter files to your installation on the Linux machine
Build the app with Build for Remote Server so that it will connect to the Linux machine instead of the local development machine
Step 3 above means you'll need to maintain 2 development environments, which is not so easy.
If you are during development, you should aspire for options 1 or 2; in other words, create a proper development environment. In Mobile, this requires public Internet access (usually).
