The ApplicationServer pattern has been created in a manner that allows it to support Windows, Linux and Unix platforms from the same module; a Software Instance is created for each unique server, node and cell combination running on a host.

The Nodeagent and DeploymentManager patterns only identify instances of IBM WebSphere Application Server components on the Unix platform.
