I was able to get everything installed. It would be helpful if the instructions were consolidated into a single complete installation/configuration guide.
--- I installed the webfocus client. This generate several .war files. I'm not sure which of these need to be installed into the app server and what context root to use.
Experimentation leads me to believe that:
webfocus76.war should be mapped to /ibi_apps ibi_html76.war should be mapped to /ibi_html
what is mbase.war? what is approot76.war?
It would be nice if the installation instructions gave some direction.

There is a search option at the top of the screen called "Tech Doc Search", perhaps this may be of use ?

Did you choose not to use Tomcat as your app server? That would happen automatically if you decided so.
Otherwise, the WebFOCUS Install guide will have a section explaining how to deploy the application context to your particular app server.
I tried to search, but it was difficult to come up with keywords that would return something pertinent.

The PDF I was reading, "WebFocus Client Connector Installation and Configuration" does not mention WebSphere at all. It talks about client platforms: Windows, Unix/Linux, OS/400, and OpenVMS, but it only goes through the steps to run the installer program itself. It doesn't have any documentation on further steps after the installation program has completed.

You may want to read the Developer Studio Installation and Configuration. I recall seeing some section applicable to deploying the .war files to an application server and I think WebSphere was there.
