IBM Guided Activity Assistant (IGAA)

The IBM Guided Activity Assistant (IGAA) is a new tool that brings together all three of these
support elements (information, tools, and processes) to help you solve problems in an easier
and more consistent manner. IGAA takes you step-by-step through the IBM-recommended
problem determination process and exposes you to information, utilities, and best practices at
the points where they are appropriate and relevant.

Important:

WebSphere Portal Server is built on top of WebSphere Application Server, so a

knowledge of WebSphere Application Server troubleshooting is critical as well. We highly
recommend taking advantage of the WebSphere Application Server content as well.
