Overview

The primary node machine is the first node configured in a cluster and serves as the basis for the Portal apps shared by cluster members. We can install WebSphere Portal to a node that is already managed by the deployment manager, or we can install Portal to an unmanaged node.

If you are installing IBM WebSphere Process Server (WPS) along with WebSphere Portal, install Portal into a managed node. WPS does not support installing on an unmanaged node and then federating the node to a cell.

Installation of Portal to a managed node is not supported in an i5/OS environment. Install WebSphere Portal first to an unmanaged node, and then federate the node.
