Since 9.2, Sterling Commerce installation and FP are integrated with IBM Installation Manager. It might not be possible or desirable to use IBM Installation Manager (imcl) in all scenarios.
It is possible to install IBM Sterling Commerce FP (Fix Pack) without IBM Installation Manager (imcl).
First, download the fix pack. For example, you can download the SMCFS 9.3.0 FP from IBM Fix central:
http://www-933.ibm.com/support/fixcentral/swg/selectFixes?parent=ibm~Other%2Bsoftware&product=ibm/Other+software/Sterling+Selling+and+Fulfillment+Foundation&release=9.3.0&platform=All&function=all
After download the installer (In the example 9.3.0.0-Sterling-SSFF-All-fp0009.zip for SMCFS 9.3.0 FP 9). Unzip it and you should have something like:

The files that we are interested are in the "files" folder:
- installfoundation93fp_9.3.0.9.xml
- Foundation93-FP9_9.3.0.9.zip
- Unzip the Foundation93-FP9_9.3.0.9.zip file
- Utilize the InstallService.sh (or InstallService.cmd) in the Sterling Foundation's bin folder (example/opt/Sterling/Foundation/bin/InstallService.sh) to install the smcfs_93_FP9.jar
| [smcfsuser@pocsea03 ~]$ mkdir /opt/Sterling/Runtime/FPTemp [smcfsuser@pocsea03 ~]$ cd /opt/Sterling/Runtime/FPTemp [smcfsuser@pocsea03 FPTemp]$ unzip /opt/Sterling/fp/SSFS0009/files/Foundation93-FP9_9.3.0.9.zip [smcfsuser@pocsea03 FPTemp]$ /opt/Sterling/Runtime/bin/InstallService.sh /opt/Sterling/Runtime/FPTemp/smcfs_93_FP9.jar |
You should inspect the installfoundation93fp_9.3.0.9.xml file to verify if the FP is using the InstallService which is referred by ${INSTALL_SCRIPT}.
