Container installation of Tivoli Enterprise Portal Server and all of its prerequisites is an alternative to the classic installation packages for each component. The IBM Tivoli Monitoring - Tivoli Enterprise Portal Server Container image provides all the software required to run a Tivoli Enterprise Portal Server inside a container Docker host. It includes pre-installed and pre-configured Tivoli Enterprise Portal Server software, all necessary binaries and dependencies, administration scripts for managing the container lifecycle, and configuration tailored for your container deployment. Once the Tivoli Enterprise Portal Server is up and running inside the IBM Tivoli Monitoring - Tivoli Enterprise Portal Server Container, you can view OMEGAMON performance data using the Tivoli Enterprise Portal Java Web Start web browser.

IBM Tivoli Monitoring - Tivoli Enterprise Portal Server Container supports Docker and Podman runtime environment. It is highly recommended to use Red Hat® Enterprise Linux (RHEL) for operating a container runtime environment, but as long as an up-to-date container environment for zLinux is available, you can use it for deploying the IBM Tivoli Monitoring - Tivoli Enterprise Portal Server Container.

You can continue to configure and customize the IBM Tivoli Monitoring - Tivoli Enterprise Portal Server Container after the installation.
