Profile creation
Profiles can be created at any point of time, during or after installation, by using
graphical or command line tools. After creating the profiles, for further
configuration and administration, you can use these profile management tools
provided with WebSphere Application Server:
► Manageprofiles
Command line interface for profile management functions.
► Profile Management Tool (PMT)
Eclipse Rich Client Platform (RCP)-based GUI that gathers user input and
invokes the manageprofiles command line tool to manage the profiles. For
z/OS, zPMT is used as the profile management tool. The zPMT is part of the
WebSphere Configuration Tools, that can be downloaded at the following Web

All WebSphere Application Server packages support a single stand-alone server
environment. With a stand-alone configuration, each application server acts as
an unique entity. An application server runs one or more applications and
provides the services required to run those applications. Each stand-alone
server is created by defining an application server profile (Figure 3-2).
