Deploying Federation Manager in WebSphere Application Server

Before deploying an application or deleting an instance in WebSphere Application Server 5.1 (minimum version supported), you must modify the Jacl (Java Action Command Language) descriptor file. Following this you may run the wsadmin.sh file from the command line. More information on both of these steps can be found in the WebSphere Application Server documentation.
