Installing assets using the installUtility command
You can use the installUtility command to install assets in your Liberty environment and view required asset information.
About this task
After you install Liberty, you can install assets by running the installUtility command. The installUtility command automatically installs asset dependencies.
When you install fix pack 16.0.0.2 and later, all features that apply to your Liberty edition are installed by default. To install more Liberty assets, use the installUtility command. You can also use this command to remove unwanted or unneeded Liberty features.
You can install assets from the following repositories:
- The Liberty Repository, a public IBM®-hosted repository that is accessible through the internet. For more information, see Liberty Repository.
- The Liberty Asset Repository Service, an open source service that you can use to create an on-premises repository that is remotely accessible behind the firewall of an enterprise. For more information, see the WASdev/tool.lars project on GitHub.
- Local directory-based repositories, which you create by using the installUtility download action or by downloading the wlp-featureRepo-<version>.zip file, which contains all applicable features and addons. For more information, see Downloading assets using the installUtility command.
