• First download the Geronimo bundle distribution
• Determine what you want GERONIMO_HOME to be. We will use "/opt/geronimo3" for this example.
• Unpack the Geronimo bundle, and move the unpacked directory to "/opt/geronimo3"
• We'll create two Geronimo instances named gserv1 and gserv2
  • Create the Geronimo instance directories as "/opt/geronimo3/gserv1" and "/opt/geronimo3/gserv2"
  • Copy the directories "var", "etc", and "repository" to each instance directory
  • Modify the "gservN/var/config/config-substitutions" .properties file for each Geronimo instance changing the PortOffset. We'll set the PortOffset for gserv1 to 100 and the PortOffset for gserv2 to 200 for our example.
  • Create a start script in each Geronimo instance directory to make it easier to start each instance
    • /opt/geronimo3/gserv1/start.sh

      #!/bin/bash # Geronimo start script # instance: gserv1 # Uncomment this to explicitly set Geronimo's runtime Java #JAVA_HOME=/usr/jdk1.6.0_25 #PATH=${JAVA_HOME}/bin:${PATH} GHOME=/opt/geronimo3 GVIRT=gserv1 export GERONIMO_OPTS=-Dorg.apache.geronimo.server.name=${GVIRT} # Normal startuo ${GHOME}/bin/startup # Interactive startup #${GHOME}/bin/geronimo run

    • /opt/geronimo3/gserv2/start.sh

      #!/bin/bash # Geronimo start script # instance: gserv2 # Uncomment this to explicitly set Geronimo's runtime Java #JAVA_HOME=/usr/jdk1.6.0_25 #PATH=${JAVA_HOME}/bin:${PATH} GHOME=/opt/geronimo3 GVIRT=gserv2 export GERONIMO_OPTS=-Dorg.apache.geronimo.server.name=${GVIRT} # Normal startuo ${GHOME}/bin/startup # Interactive startup #${GHOME}/bin/geronimo run

  • On linux, make the start script is executable with chmod: chmod 755 start.sh
• Finally you can start up each instance by executing their associated start script you just created in the previous step
• Your Geronimo installation file structure should look something similar to this:

  No Format

  /opt/geronimo3 |-- LICENSE |-- NOTICE |-- README.txt |-- RELEASE_NOTES-3.0-SNAPSHOT.txt |-- bin |-- deploy |-- etc |-- gserv1 | |-- etc | |-- repository | |-- start.sh | `-- var |-- gserv2 | |-- etc | |-- repository | |-- start.sh | `-- var |-- hotbundles |-- jsr88 |-- lib |-- repository |-- schema `-- var
