WebSphere Application Server V9.0 Sample Installation Jobs for z/OS
The attached file contains a set of sample jobs for installing IBM WebSphere Application Serve V9.0 and WebSphere Liberty on z/OS. These jobs are also contained in the SBBOJCL library of WebSphere Application Server V9.0 (5655-WAS); they are provided here for customers who wish to install WebSphere Application Server V9.0 on z/OS without using SMP/E.
Edit and submit this file as a batch job to place the sample jobs into a partitioned data set.
See the BBO$INDX member for a complete list of the sample jobs.
Note: These jobs require a minimum Installation Manager level of 1.9.0.
Updated: April 13, 2026
Jobs have been added for Java 11, Java 17, Java 21, and Java 25 installation on WebSphere Liberty.
All samples have been updated to follow current IBM recommendations:
- Default Installation Manager location is /global/instmgr.
- All repositories are in /global/instmgr.
- All products are installed under /global/instmgr/products.
- Credentials files are stored in each user's home directory.
An index and several new jobs have been added, along with a complete set of sample jobs utilizing a "portable install" layout which can be moved from one z/OS system to another while remaining serviceable with IBM Installation Manager.
