Not a separate purchase.

You should seriously consider installing the admin center on some
other, ANY other, system image.  A cheap RedHat VM is probably the
best place; that way you don't have to use the expesive AIX CPU and
memory to support a commoditized web service.

You want P-series and AIX behind the DB2 and TSM layers, but for the
websphere stuff, I don't know why you'd care.
