Upload asset settings


To specify the asset to register with the asset repository. We can add registered assets to a business-level application.

To view this admin console page, click Applications > New application > New Asset.

Importing an asset registers the asset with the asset repository.

WAS ND v7.0 manages the contents of a registered asset as a single entity. The contents of a registered asset must be accessible to appservers, Web servers and other runtime environments that use the asset.

During asset importing, asset files typically are uploaded from a client workstation running the browser to the server running the admin console, where they are registered. In such cases, use the Web browser running the admin console to select files to upload to the server.

Path to the asset

Fully qualified path to the asset.

Specify one of the following supported assets:

  • A single file, such as an EJB file

  • An archive of files, such as a Java™ archive (JAR) or a compressed (zip) file

  • An archive of archives, such as an EAR or shared library file

Use Local file system if the browser and asset files are on the same machine (whether or not the server is on that machine, too).

Use Remote file system if the asset file resides on any node in the current cell context. Only supported assets are shown during the browsing. Also use Remote file system to specify an asset file that is already residing on the machine running the application server. For example, the field value might be $PROFILE_ROOT/installableApps/my_bean.ejb. After the asset file is transferred, the Remote file system value shows the path of the temporary location on the server.
