Deploying the adapter for inbound operations

After you install the WebSphere® Adapter for Flat Files, you must deploy it. Deployment consists of creating a project, generating service artifacts, generating reference bindings, exporting the application, installing the application to run on WebSphere Process Server.

The adapter is distributed as a Resource Adapter Archive (RAR) file.

  1. You install the adapter into WebSphere Integration Developer by importing the RAR file.
  2. Once the adapter has been installed, you generate an Enterprise Application Archive (EAR) file.
  3. The EAR file is then deployed to WebSphere Process Server using the administrative console.
Note: While WebSphere Integration Developer only runs on Windows® or Linux®, WebSphere Process Server runs on Windows, Linux and UNIX® platforms.

In principle, deploying the adapter is the same as deploying any other component on WebSphere Process Server. For more information on deploying components on WebSphere Process Server, see the IBM WebSphere Integration Developer, Version 6.0 documentation.
