CIM is a tool to allow remote installation of WebSphere Application Server software (release, refresh pack, fix pack, and interim fixes) without logging into each node.
Unlike update installer, CIM is part of WAS 7 Admin Console. It uses update installer by keeping is as part of the installation package and getting it installed on the node to use for product installation.
CIM is new feature with WebSphere Application Server 7.0.
For more details, refer to IBM Centralized Installation Manager (CIM) red paper.
"The CIM does not take the place of Update Installer or Installation Factory for
WebSphere Software. CIM pushes the product binary files or maintenance to the
remote targets and invokes the standard installer or update installer tool to
perform the installation or apply updates on the target systems."

Excellent post Admin. Now I have to really think about what I say here ;)
I think it's important for people to also think about how powerful an effect comments can have, especially for new bloggers. A comment is both a validation that someone has read the content and connected with it - that can inspire someone to continue on interimmanager, or if too negative, make others consider shutting down.
At any rate, I'll give this more thought but I'm bookmarking this post to share with Friends. Thanks again.
