You can install WebSphere® Application Server Liberty Core using Installation Manager response files.
Before you begin
![[17.0.0.3 and later]](../ng_v17003plus.gif)
Java SE 8 is the recommended Java SDK because it provides the latest features and security updates. As an alternative to installing Java SE 8, you can install another supported Java SDK version.
Prepare each of the systems onto which you want to install the offering as described in Installing Installation Manager and preparing to install Liberty.
About this task
Using Installation Manager, you can work with response files to install the offering in various ways. You can record a response file by using the GUI as described in the following procedure, create a new response file, or copy and modify an existing response file.
New: When you install Liberty, by default all Liberty features that apply to your Liberty product edition are also installed.
