Installation scenarios

You can install WebSphere® Extended Deployment, including all three separate products, in various ways to enhance your application server environment. Depending on your existing environment and which product you install, the installation process includes certain features that might not be available in other installation scenarios.

WebSphere Extended Deployment Version 6.1 includes the following three products:

You can install WebSphere Virtual Enterprise in an environment that contains WebSphere Application Server Network Deployment and either Compute Grid, eXtreme Scale, or both. During the installation process, the wizard detects and verifies the existing installations as part of the current installation process.

When you install Virtual Enterprise in environments in which WebSphere Application Server Network Deployment does not exist, only the middleware agent is installed on a node that is running other middleware servers. The middleware agent is a server process that is used to manage other middleware servers. Additionally, the installation wizard does not present the option to add the product to the centralized installation manager repository. You can, however, add the product later by using the centralized installation manager tool. From the administrative console, you can use the centralized installation manager to shorten the number of steps that are required to create and manage your remote environments. For more information on the middleware agent and the centralized installation manager, see the following topics:
