Install the batch application

Install a batch application the same way that you install an enterprise application.

Develop a compute-intensive application or a transactional batch application. We can develop a compute intensive application using a compute-intensive job controller, the command line, or the Apache ANT tool. We can develop a transactional batch application using a batch job controller and EJB data stream, the command line, or the ANT tool.

A batch application is installed like JEE transactional applications.

When mapping modules of the batch application to servers, select the server or cluster created previously for the enterprise bean modules containing the logic for a batch job.

The modules of a given EAR containing a batch EJB module can only have a single batch endpoint target among them. A batch endpoint target is a server or cluster with any batch EJB module (possibly in a different application) targeted to it.gotcha

  1. Install the batch application using the administrative console, , or using another supported way to install enterprise applications.

    See topics on installing enterprise application files.

  2. Verify that the application installed correctly.

    For example, go to the Enterprise applications administrative console page by clicking Applications > Application Types > WebSphere enterprise applications. If the application is not running, select the application and click Start. Test the application to ensure that it operates correctly.


What to do next
