Just comment unnecessary containers.

You can use openldap instead of apacheds.

Next steps:

1. new branch to deploy some applications.
2. new branch to configure HADR.
3. new branch with Dynatrace for example.

Following containers are missing (For licensing reasons):

• The WebSphere Application Server Network Deployment (dmgr)

• The WebSphere Portal server

https://developer.ibm.com/digexp/docs/docs/customization-administration/ibm-digital-experience-on-docker-containers/

Tools

• MQ: MQ explorer, rfhutil or HermesJMS
• LDAP: jxplorer
• WAS: TODO: find a Jython script library to deploy applications, create resources, ...

run Configure_MQRA.py to change MQ configuration. see here

• DB2: SQuirreL
