Information about a node, such as operating system platform and product features, is maintained in the configuration repository in the form of properties. As product features are installed on a node, new property settings are added.

com.ibm.websphere.baseProductVersion: The version of WebSphere Application Server that is installed.
com.ibm.websphere.nodeOperatingSystem: The operating system platform on which the node runs.
com.ibm.websphere.deployed.features: A list of features that extends a profile. An example of a feature is an administrative console plug-in.
