IBM WebSphere Installation Factory - overview

The IBM® WebSphere® Installation Factory combines the installation image for WebSphere ESB with applicable maintenance packages, customization scripts, and other files, to create a customized installation package (CIP). These installation packages can be installed in a single step.

Installing and configuring WebSphere ESB is usually a multiple step process:

  1. Install the shipped version of WebSphere ESB.
  2. Install the current fix pack.
  3. Install a refresh pack.
  4. Install one or more interim fixes as needed.
  5. Create and configure application servers and other artifacts.
  6. Deploy applications.

The IBM WebSphere Installation Factory simplifies the process by creating a single installation image - the customized installation package (CIP). The installation image can be created with a wide array of optional assets to allow you to customize the resulting installation to your needs.

The image shows how a customized installation package is created. The Build definition wizard creates a Build definition XML.
