Example: Installing an EAR file using the default bindings

An example of a simple .ear file installation using the default bindings follows:

  1. Go to the Preparing for application install pages. Click Applications > Install an Application in the console navigation tree.
  2. For Path, specify the full path name of the .ear file. For this example, the base file name is my_appl.ear and the file resides on a server at C:\sample_apps.
    1. Select the Server path radio button and click Browse.
    2. On the Browse Remote Filesystems page, click on the name of the node that holds the my_appl.ear file, C:\, sample_apps, my_appl.ear, and then OK.
  3. Now that a value is given for Path, on the first Preparing for application install page, click Next.
  4. On the second Preparing for application install page, place a checkmark beside the Generate Default Bindings check box and click Next. Using the default bindings causes any incomplete bindings in the application to be filled in with default values. Existing bindings are not changed. By choosing this option, you can directly jump to the Summary step.
  5. On the Install New Application page, click on Summary, the last step.
  6. On the Summary panel, verify the cell, node, and server onto which the application files will install.
    1. Beside the Cell/Node/Server option, click Click here.
    2. On the Map modules to application servers panel, select the server onto which the application files will install from the Clusters and Servers list, place a checkmark in the check box beside Module to select all of the application modules, and click Next.

    Because my_appl.ear does not require any additional settings to complete an installation, the Summary panel displays again.

  7. On the Summary panel, click Finish.
