You can install WebSphere® Application Server Version 8.5 using the Installation Manager command line.
Prepare for the installation before using this procedure. See Preparing the operating system for installation on IBM i for more information.
You can install Installation Manager using the product media, using a file obtained from the Passport Advantage® site, or using a file containing the most current version of Installation Manager from the IBM® Installation Manager download website.

For more information on creating a keyring file for Installation Manager, read the IBM Installation Manager Version 1.6 Information Center or the IBM Installation Manager Version 1.5 Information Center.
There is no migration path from keyring files to storage files because of the differences in the file structures. You must create a storage file to replace a keyring file.
For more information on using the -secureStorageFile and -masterPasswordFile options to store credentials in a credential storage file, see the Installation Manager Version 1.6 Information Center.

This option installs the EJBDeploy tool for pre-EJB 3.0 modules.
Before you deploy applications on the server, you must run the EJBDeploy tool on applications that contain EJB modules that are based on specifications prior to EJB 3.0. Running the EJBDeploy tool generates deployment code for enterprise beans in the application. Beginning with the EJB 3.0 specification, the EJBDeploy tool is no longer required because WebSphere Application Server uses a new feature called JITDeploy, which automatically generates code when the application starts.
This option installs the IBM standalone thin clients and resource adapters.
IBM thin clients provide a set of clients for a variety of technologies, such as JAX-WS, JAX-RPC, JAX-RS, XML, EJB, JPA, JMS, and more. IBM resource adapters provide the resource adapters for JMS.
This option installs the embeddable EJB container.
The embeddable EJB Container is a Java Archive (JAR) file that you can use to run enterprise beans in a standalone Java Platform, Standard Edition environment. You can run enterprise beans using this embeddable container outside the application server. The embeddable EJB container is a part of the EJB 3.1 specification and is primarily used for unit testing enterprise beans business logic.
This option installs the sample applications for learning and demonstration environments.
The samples include both source code files and integrated enterprise applications that demonstrate some of the latest Java (TM) Platform, Enterprise Edition (Java EE) and WebSphere technologies. The samples are recommended for installation to learning and demonstration environments, such as development environments. However, they are not recommended for installation to production application server environments.

However, they are not recommended for installation to production application server environments.
Installing this application-server feature gives you a lightweight profile of the application server along with a simplified configuration approach for the development environment. Its fast restart times, small size, and ease of use make it a good option for building web applications that do not require the full JEE environment of traditional enterprise application server profiles. The Liberty profile also can be used in production; and because it is a dynamic configuration, the application server provisions only the features required by the running applications.
