  • * Purchase a WebSphere Application Server or WebSphere Application Server Network Deployment license. You get IBM support for your Open Liberty instances and can use these instances with WebSphere Automation.
  • **If the product uses either WebSphere Application Server or WebSphere Application Server Liberty, ensure that you use at least the minimum version that WebSphere Automation supports. For example, if you use WebSphere Application Server v8.5.5 with FileNet P8 Platform, you must use WebSphere Application Server V8.5.5.15 at a minimum.
  • *** Security bulletins for z/OS specific vulnerabilities are published separately from security bulletins for common vulnerabilities for both z/OS and distributed platforms. CVE monitoring is limited to common vulnerabilities.
