Haruhiko,
Good Morning,
Yes, I have checked the compatibility spreadsheet, APM 9.7.16 is compatable with WAS 8.5.
My question though is, possibly WAS 8.X was not out yet prior to APM 9.7 being distributed, hence no ws80x.pbd files, as what was all in the 9.7 package was the ws60x.pbd and ws70x.pbd files.
The ws70x.pbd file is in the file “websphere-typical.pbl” file in our Introscope_WAS_profile.
Yesterday, I did open up a case with support as well.
Thank You…
