Answer 1

It took me a bit of effort to figure this out, so here's an expanded answer:

• In the IBM Installation Manager, click "Modify".
• Find the IBM Software Delivery Platform that includes IBM Rational Application Developer for WebSphere Software 8.5
• Click "Next" to get to the language page
• Click "Next" to get to the feature selection page
• Maven is listed under IBM Rational Application Developer for WebSphere -> Collaborative development and build tools
• Click "Next", then "Modify" and let the installation manager do its thing.
