A stand-alone application server cell is the simplest WebSphere
Application Server for z/OS configuration on which you can deploy and run
applications. A stand-alone application server cell includes the following:
- A basic cell and node configuration
- A location service daemon
- An application server that runs the administrative console application.
You can deploy and run additional applications on this server.
You cannot add additional servants to an application server running the
stand-alone version of the administrative console application. You can define
additional application servers in the stand-alone cell, but you cannot control
them using the administrative console. For more complicated or robust WebSphere
Application Server for z/OS application-serving environments, the Network
Deployment cell configuration is recommended.
