Create Enterprise Archive Files

Valid on Oracle WebLogic 10.1

Most enterprise Application Servers support bundling the related JAR or WAR files from one vendor (Example: CA) to a single enterprise application (or archive).

As a result, all the related JARs or WARs can be deployed together, and can be loaded by a class loader. This archive also contains an application.xml file, which is generated automatically and describes how to deploy each bundled module.

Provide the default WAR files to deploy UDS and Administration Console. However if necessary, you can also change the format of these files to Enterprise ARchive (EAR) and then deploy the EAR files.

One of following subsections helps you to either generate separate EAR files for both UDS and Administration Console, or to generate a single EAR file that contains both web archives.

To create a separate EAR file each for UDS and Administration Console, do the following steps:

1. Open the Command Prompt window.
2. Navigate to the <install_location>\Arcot Systems\tools\common\bundlemanager\ directory.
3. To create the EAR file, run the following command:

   java -jar bundle-manager.jar -ear <filename.ear> -warList <filename.war>
   

   The preceding command generates individual EAR files that are available at:

   <install_location>\Arcot Systems\java\webapps\
   

To create a single EAR file that contains UDS and Administration Console Web archives, do the following steps:

1. Open the Command Prompt window.
2. Navigate to the <install_location>\Arcot Systems\tools\common\bundlemanager\ directory.
3. To create the EAR file, run the following command:

   java -jar bundle-manager.jar -ear <filename.ear> -warList arcotadmin.war arcotuds.war
   

   The preceding command generates a single EAR file that is available at:

   <install_location>\Arcot Systems\java\webapps\
