Installing business process and human task applications, using the administrative console

Before you begin

For each application server on which you want to install the Service Component Architecture (SCA) Enterprise JavaBeans (EJB) modules that contain processes, you must have performed the steps described in Configuring the business process container using the installation wizard or Configuring the human task container, using the installation wizard, as appropriate.

Before you install a business process or human task application, make sure that the following conditions are true:

Attention: When you run the administrative commands to install a business process application or a human task application, do not use the -conntype NONE option as an installation option. Also, see Installing business process applications, using the administrative commands.

Why and when to perform this task

If you are installing an application on a cluster, you might have to adapt the data source resource reference to the data source for the cluster.

Steps for this task

  1. Deploy the application. For more information, see Installing application files with the console, which is in the WebSphere Application Server information center.

Result

All business process templates and human task templates are put into the start state.

What to do next

If you installed a process application on a cluster, verify that the application uses the data source that is named after the cluster. For example, if the application was generated using the default data source BPEDB, change the data source for the application to BPEDB_cluster_name, where cluster_name is the name of the cluster on which you installed the application.

Before you can create process instances or task instances, you must start the application.
