This middleware installer could be used on different systems to install the individual components, thus simplifying the install of a multi-server environment. The following section will describe the use of the middleware installer on a single system.

You don’t have to use the middleware installer. You can install the middleware through normal methods. You will need to do this, if you plan on using other vendors products or different versions than listed above. We will not discuss considerations for manual installation of the middleware in this book. Please refer to the appendix to look at the manual configuration of Maximo Asset Management Essentials on the IBM WebSphere platform. For more details or other platforms please refer to the following install guides:
