Hi Kevin,

As you suggested we have made all the changes to IBM Installation Manger 
layer (https://github.com/kwmonroe/layer-ibm-installation-manager) locally 
( in ./reactive/ibm-installation-manager.sh)  to make it is a functional 
layer and we are able to deploy IBM-IM successfully. 

But when we are trying to install IBM-WAS on top of IBM-IM layer,  IM 
layer states like 'im.installed' is not recognized in IBM-WAS layer. 
Although we have set LAYER_PATH and  included IBM-IM Layer in layer.yaml:

    includes: ['layer:ibm-installation-manager']

Could you please suggest us is there anything to be added to use IBM-IM 
layer in other products eg:WAS...!!

Shruthima Almavar.

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.

Thanks,
Kevin

Hello Shurthima,

Thanks for reaching out to the Juju list. The layered approach is the way 
to write all new charms. We do recommend that you use the basic layer when 
creating a new base level feature such as IBM Installation Manager. To do 
that the layer.yaml should look like this:
includes: ['layer:basic']

As far as interface, I would have to know more about what services IBM IM 
can use or interact with. If IBM IM can talk to a database it should have 
a database relation. If the product has an web interface it should 
implement the http interface. You as the author knows the product better 
than I would. Interface layers make it very easy to use juju interfaces.

We have some documentation about how to write layered charms, for more 
information please read:

https://jujucharms.com/docs/devel/developer-getting-started

Please email the list if you have any more specific questions.  Thanks!
