The bundle cache is a cell-wide store (or server-wide for single-server systems) of bundles that are referenced by OSGi applications, and that have been downloaded from both internal and external repositories. For a given bundle, you can view the bundle size, the download status, and a list of the assets and composition units that use the bundle. You can also view and refresh the repository URL for the repository that hosts the bundle.
A bundle download is requested when you import an enterprise bundle archive (EBA) file as an asset, and when you update an asset to use new bundle versions. A bundle download is also requested when you add a composite bundle as an extension to a composition unit.

saved your changes to the master configuration.
- The bundle is not downloaded until you save your changes.

Note: If
a bundle has been moved, for example from the internal bundle repository
to an external repository, click Refresh Repository URL to
resolve the bundle location again and update the displayed URL.
- Size
- The size is the total size of the bundle, displayed in bytes.
If the bundle size is not known, because the bundle download is not yet complete, "Unknown" is displayed.

If the download is complete, "100%" is displayed. If a download is in progress and the total expected file size is known, the approximate percentage complete is displayed. If a download is in progress and the total expected file size is not known, for example because the file is being downloaded through an FTP site, the number of bytes downloaded so far is displayed.
- Bundle download exceptions
- If the bundle state is "Failed", the "Bundle download exceptions" pane is displayed. This pane contains trace information to help you understand why the bundle download has failed.
