Hi Steve

It should work with both Hyades controller and IBM Agent Controller.

To enable the J2EE Request Profiler you can either use WebSphere Application
Studio Developer and launch Websphere in Profile mode or add
"-DPD_DT_ENABLED=true" to the process:Server -> processDefinition ->
jvmEntries.genericJvmArguments in
AppServer\config\cells\<your_cell>\nodes\<your_node>\servers\<your_server>\s
erver.xml file and restart the server.

You could also profile Websphere 5.x using the Java Profiler (JVMPI based)
by adding "-XrunPiAgent" to the above attribute and restart the server.

Thanks,
Marius
