Query on IBM-Installtion Manger Charm Layer

Wed Mar 30 05:20:31 UTC 2016

Hi Shruthima,

If you have a local ibm-im layer in your LAYER_PATH, an ibm-was layer
should find it during 'charm build' and any ibm-im states should be usable
in ibm-was.  If you can commit your ibm-im and ibm-was layers to
lp:~ibmcharmers,
i'd be happy to take a look.  If that's not possible, please send the
output of 'charm build -l DEBUG' from your layer-ibm-was directory.  That
should tell us where it's pulling the ibm-im layer from and might give us
clues where to look next.

Thanks,
-Kevin
