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:
- The Download Artifacts step retrieves the binary
files.
- The Check Initial Heap Size step verifies that
the server has enough memory.
- The Check Status step verifies
that the server is running.
- The Create JDBCProvider step
sets up a connection from the server to a database.
- The Create DataSource step
sets up a Java EE data source
for the application to use.
- The Install Application step
installs the application.
- The Check Application is Installed step
verifies that the application was installed correctly.
- The Start Application step
starts the application.
- The Wait for Application step
introduces a delay to allow time for the application to start.
- The Check Application is running on server or cluster step
verifies that the application started correctly.
