External bundle repositories [Settings]

The external bundle repositories are bundle repositories that are available outside of WebSphere Application Server. If your OSGi applications reference bundles that are stored in an external bundle repository, you must configure a link (name and URL) to the repository so that the provisioner can retrieve the bundles when required. When an OSGi application is imported as an asset, the provisioner attempts to satisfy all its dependencies by using the contents of the asset, the contents of the internal bundle repository, and the contents of any available external bundle repositories.

To view this panel in the administrative console, click the following path:

Environment > OSGi bundle repositories > External bundle repositories > bundle_repository_name
