This is what I usually do as well unless (and there are some customers that are like that) the customer policy is to use everything bundled and not to download anything from Apache (Tomcat) or Oracle (JRE's and JDK's) without a lengthy approval process which involves their quality control team downloading the requested software and having it tested by their quality control teams - which can take days or maybe even weeks before getting the necessary approvals. Believe it or not I have worked at some sites that require this as a process making it necessary to use as much of the bundled stuff as is possible..

The latest SP/patch of MT 7.6.04 should work very well on TC 7 with Java 7 (TC/Java 8 might even be supported in the latest version of MT?). I recommend installing Tomcat yourself before installing MT and it's bundled TC to give you more flexibility and the ability to easily keep up-to-date. The bundled TC is really only meant for standing up quick demo systems (and even then I typically don't use that TC because it only takes a few minutes to install TC separately). Once you get into the habit of building the full MT app stack Java -> TC - MT you get pretty fast at it. At this point my team can typically take down a web server, strip MT, TC and Java, reboot and rebuilt it with the latest versions and configure in about 30 - 40 minutes.

But I can assure you that if you have followed all the steps as required as a part of pre-requisites before you stand up your system, there is not a lot you need to do to have the bundled Tomcat up and running.
