Install IDWC for Java352, see pre-req of JazzSM and WAS. What components of JazzSM are required for IDWC? Not going to enable Tivoli Common Reporting. Is DB2 still required for JazzSM?
The components of JazzSM required to install IDWC are "IBM Dashboard Application Services Hub" and "Jazz for Service Management extension for IBM WebSphere".
If you do NOT enable Tivoli Common Reporting then DB2 is not required to install the IDWC.

Good Day!
I have a confusing with the IBM MobileFirst v8.0, does Mobilefirst App are only using Bluemix service / Server, or can MobileFirst App run on MobileFirst Server v8.0 alone and also does the MobileFirst Server same with MobileFirst Developer Kit.
You can run MobileFirst Server either on-prem, meaning you install it locally in production-ready server that you maintain yourself,
Or you can use IBM Bluemix. In Bluemix you are "given" a space where you can either use the Mobile Foundation service, which takes care of setting up a server for you with MobileFirst Server, or you can go through some steps to create it yourself.
To install on-prem: https://mobilefirstplatform.ibmcloud.com/tutorials/en/foundation/8.0/installation-configuration/
To install on Bluemix: https://mobilefirstplatform.ibmcloud.com/tutorials/en/foundation/8.0/bluemix/
In case of on-prem be sure to first contact IBM to purchase a license so you could gain access to download the required files.
The developer kit is like on-prem, and provides a ready environment for development purposes locally in your computer. It is like the Developer plan when using the Mobile Foundation service plan in Bluemix.

Server Configuration Tool needs Database Settings(host,port,username,password,dbname) and AppServer Settings(installation directory,username,password) information. The tool also need to access database directly.
The MFPF docs doesn't provide such kind of information. Is there anyway to user server configuration tool for MFPF on ibm container?
It is not possible to use the Server configuration tool for IBM Containers deployment. The only current way is to use the scripts as provided and instructed, here: https://developer.ibm.com/mobilefirstplatform/documentation/getting-started-7-1/bluemix/run-foundation-on-bluemix/
I'm trying to deploy a MobileFirst server to a local Liberty server configured with an LDAP server.
When I try and deploy my server configuration the admin task fails due to lack of attributes for connecting to Liberty.
BUILD FAILED
C:\Users\Administrator\Documents\IBM MobileFirst Platform Server Data\Server Configuration Tool\Configuration_Hello MobileFirst Server\Hello MobileFirst Server.xml:88: The element <installWorklightAdmin>, <jmx libertyAdminUser=".." libertyAdminPassword="..."/> is missing. A default user cannot be created for this server.
I have tried updating the server configuration file manually before deploying, but the server configuration tool is just saving over the changes.
How can I resolve this problem from within the Server Configuration Tool?
The Server Configuration Tool in MFP 7.0 can't be used to make an install on a Liberty server that is configured with LDAP.
In the simplified install process of the Server Configuration Tool, it automatically creates a Liberty Administrator in a basic registry and this is not possible if Liberty is configured with LDAP.
If you don't want to create ant files manually, you can:
Export the ant files that you created with the Server Configuration Tool (Menu File/Export Configuration as Ant files...)
Edit them so that they have the right attributes in the jmx element (you need to provide the login of password of a user that will be used as Liberty Administrator and that the apps will use to perform JMX calls)
Run the ant files as described here
For the admin: https://www-01.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/SSHS8R_7.0.0/com.ibm.worklight.installconfig.doc/install_config/r_wlconsole_ant_tasks.html
For the runtime: https://www-01.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/SSHS8R_7.0.0/com.ibm.worklight.deploy.doc/devref/c_project_war_file_ant_tasks.html
You may encrypt the password of the JMX user with the Liberty securityUtility program (in LibertyInstallDir/bin)
I installed IBM mobilefirst server on Liberty Profile in z/Linux(SUSE). I find the Server Configuration Tool can not be started, but it can be start in Windows7.
I want to know that Server Configuration Tool can not be started only in z/Linux or all platform(x86,AMD).
Server config tool is not available for z/Linux and AIX platforms.
For these platforms the MFP configuration can be done using Ant task scripts instead.
The below link has the information about Creating and configuring the database for MobileFirst Server administration with Ant tasks and also
Deploying the MobileFirst Operations Console and Administration Services with Ant tasks

Can we implement IWAP reports with developer edition of IBM Worklight 6.0 ? If yes please guide me with technical document or any link. Is this feature only available with Enterprise or Consumer version ?
If yes then how can we implement/test this on development environment. And can anyone please provide me with list of features which are not available with developer version(one which comes into my mind is Application Center).
The Operational Analytics feature introduced in Worklight 6.0 is only available for paid versions of IBM Worklight 6.0. There's a file (analytics.zip) in the resulting IBM Installation Manager output folder that contains everything you need to setup the IBM Websphere Analytics Platform (IWAP). Once you have IWAP installed, you will need to modify a couple of properties inside worklight.properties which, among other things, tell the Worklight Server where to send the analytics data.
Regarding features found only in paid versions, beside Application Center and Operational Analytics, ability to use other DBMS (MySQL, DB2, etc.) and Application Servers (WAS, Tomcat, etc.). There are also Ant scripts that aim to help with common tasks like deployments.
