Liberty supports some com.ibm.websphere.ola APIs, but there are differences from the support provided on WebSphere Application Server traditional. Review your use of the WOLA APIs to see if the differences affect your application.

Differences include the WOLA support for global transactions, Enterprise JavaBeans (EJB) support, and Java Naming and Directory Interface (JNDI). For detailed information about WOLA on Liberty, see the Developing applications that use optimized local adapters on Liberty documentation.

WOLA support for IBM Information Management Systems (IMS) is introduced in Liberty 16.0.0.3.

WOLA APIs that are not supported on Liberty are flagged by a different rule, Some WebSphere z/OS Optimized Local Adapters APIs are unavailable.
