Example: Installing an application on WebSphere Application Server

The following component process installs a Java™ EE application on WebSphere® Application Server.

For a similar example that uses the IBM® WebSphere Liberty Profile, see Example: installing an application on the WebSphere Application Server Liberty Profile.

This process assumes that the application binary files are in the component. It also assumes that the environment contains an installation of WebSphere Application Server. The process runs the following steps in order:
  1. The Download Artifacts step retrieves the binary files.
  2. The Check Initial Heap Size step verifies that the server has enough memory.
  3. The Check Status step verifies that the server is running.
  4. The Create JDBCProvider step sets up a connection from the server to a database.
  5. The Create DataSource step sets up a Java EE data source for the application to use.
  6. The Install Application step installs the application.
  7. The Check Application is Installed step verifies that the application was installed correctly.
  8. The Start Application step starts the application.
  9. The Wait for Application step introduces a delay to allow time for the application to start.
  10. The Check Application is running on server or cluster step verifies that the application started correctly.
