Applying Maximo Fix Pack on a non-installed/copied SMP Folder

    Hi all, Need some advice regarding installation.

    I have a running Maximo environment with WAS 905.13 and Maximo 7612. When I built the environment, I had installed WAS using installation manager and copied the SMP folder from another running Maximo env. Changed few properties and rebuilt/redeployed the ear and everything worked out well and using for a long time. 

    Now, I need to upgrade it to WAS 905.17 and Maximo 7613. I have already upgraded WebSphere to 905.17 using IM. But, I can't see Maximo installed on this server in the IM Installed Packages window becaues it was never installed. My requirement is to execute the 7613 installation on this non-installed/copied SMP folder.

    What can I do to make Installation Manager to recognize the installed packages so that I can proceed with 7613 patch upgrade (and add-ons upgrade)?

    I copied the IBMIMShared folder from the other environment where Maximo was properly installed hoping that it would bring the installed packages in the IM but it didn't.

    Any suggestions please.

    My last option would be to install a Maximo brand new 7.6.1.3.

    Thanks.
