Hi Shruthima, We came up with what we think an IBM Installation Manager base layer might look like:
https://github.com/kwmonroe/layer-ibm-installation-manager This is not a functional layer yet (ie, it needs to do the actual IBM IM installation in ./reactive/ibm-installation-manager.sh), but we think this is a good starting point for a layer that can be extended by other IBM software (eg: WebSphere) that utilizes IBM IM for their install. Check out the README at the above repo to see how we envision other charm layers using this IBM IM base layer. Take a look and let us know if you have any questions or concerns with this approach to providing a common IBM IM layer for others to extend.
