You use integration component libraries to store the components that you
develop. This section describes how to create a new integration
component library.
Once you have created an integration component library you will typically
want to perform the following tasks as well:
For conceptual information about integration component libraries, see Integration component libraries.
Do the following to create a new integration component library in System
Manager by using a wizard:
- Do one of the following to start the "New Integration Component
Library" wizard:
- Select File > New > Integration Component Library from
the menu bar.
- In the WebSphere Business Integration System Manager view, right-click the
Integration Component Libraries folder and select New
Integration Component Library from the context menu.
- Click Open The New Wizard button in the toolbar and select
New Integration Component Library from the menu.
Figure 7 shows the "New Integration Component Library"
wizard.
Figure 7. Creating an integration component library

- Type a name for the integration component library in the Project
name field.
Project names can only contain alphanumeric characters and underscores, and
must be specified in English.
For recommendations on naming an integration component library, see Creating your integration component libraries.
- To have the folder for the library created in the default location (your
workspace) and with a name identical to the name specified for the library,
leave the Use default location check box enabled.
If you want to specify the name and location of the library folder, do the
following:
- Clear the Use default location check box.
- Type the full path and name of the directory that you want to use for the
library in the Location field, or click Browse to select
an existing directory.
- Note:
- There is no way to create the folder for a library in the path of the
workspace other than to let System Manager do it by use of the Use
default location check box.
- If you do not want to import components into the library from the
repository of a server at this time, proceed to step 5.
If you do want to import components into the library from the repository of
a running server, do the following:
- Do one of the following to specify the server from which you want to
import the components:
- Click Next.
Figure 8 shows the screen where you import components from the
server:

- At the next screen in the wizard, enable the check box next to a server
instance to add all of the components in its repository or expand the server
folder and enable the check boxes next to component groups, or expand the
folders for groups and enable the check boxes for individual
components.
- Enable the Deep check box to add all of the dependencies of the
selected components. For more information on dependencies, see Dependencies and references.
- Click Finish to complete the
wizard.
System Manager creates a folder with the name you specified under the
Integration Component Libraries folder.
