This from my IBM Hursley colleague, Simon Holdsworth: -
In this article I will describe the steps I took to get IBM Integration Bus Version 9 installed and running on SoftLayer servers. You might want to do this as part of establishing an off-premise cloud environment that includes integration capability, or for managing a pool of integration servers for development and testing.
This article shows how to set up a SoftLayer-hosted server and install and run software on it - in this case IBM Integration Bus - either through a traditional product install, or by using a Hypervisor Edition. You can get everything working without leaving your desk, plugging in a cable or hitting a switch.
