You can create profiles that combine WebSphere Extended
Deployment features with the features of other IBM products, such
as WebSphere Commerce Server and WebSphere Portal for Multiplatforms.
Procedure
- Create a new profile for WebSphere® Extended Deployment
Compute Grid. If
you installed multiple WebSphere Extended Deployment products, you
are not required to create multiple profiles. Instead, create a profile
for only one of the products, depending on your topology and any support
requirements.
- Choose one of the following options to start the Profile
Management Tool plug-in:
- Select Profile Management Tool from the
First steps console.
- Access the Profile Management Tool from the Start menu.
- Run the ./pmt.sh|bat script from the install_root/bin/ProfileManagement directory.
The Action Selection page is displayed only
if at least one profile and the augment templates exist.
- Follow the prompts on the panels.
- Review the summary of your selections, and click Create.
- Review the completion panel, and click Finish.
- Augment the profile with the augment templates for the
other products that exist in your environment.
Restriction: Some augment templates cannot be used more than
once with each profile. If unsuccessfully attempted, a message appears
that states the selected template does not support multiple augmentations.
Click OK, and select a different template.
Results
The profile is augmented to use the features of WebSphere Extended Deployment
Compute Grid and
other IBM products.
