BI Monitor Deployment

The manual deployment of BI Monitor on WebSphere 5.0 is done through the IBM WebSphere Administrative Console for either WebSphere Application Server v5.0 or WebSphere Deployment Manager (Network Deployment) v5.0. The differences between the deployment steps on each of these WebSphere editions are:

If you intend to deploy the BI Monitor on WebSphere Deployment Manager (Network Deployment), then the version of the Network Deployment Server must be the same as the Application Server version of any node on which the Monitor will be deployed. This means deploying the Monitor on a node that has a different version from the Network Deployment Server version is not supported.
