The InterChange Server repository is a database that holds metadata about InterChange Server components. You need to load the repository objects (Java archive (.jar) files that hold the metadata) into the database. These .jar files are located in various subdirectories of the ProductDir directory. See Table 24 for the locations of various repository objects.
To load the repository:
./repos_copy -sservername -uusername -ppassword -iinput_JarFile
In the preceding command, servername is the name of the InterChange Server, username is the name of the InterChange Server user, password is the password for the InterChange Server user, and input_JarFile is the fully qualified path and name of the .jar file to be loaded into the repository.
The repos_copy command loads the data into the repository tables. For more information about loading the repository and the repos_copy command, see the Implementation Guide for WebSphere InterChange Server.
You can shut down InterChange Server with the -stop option. When the server restarts, all items loaded into the repository are stored in memory and available.
You can use the InterChange Server Component Management view in System Manager to browse the components loaded into the server.
