(ZOS) olaRar.py script file

Use the olaRar.py script file with the wsadmin scripting tool to enable the optimized local adapters, install the resource archive (RAR) file and create a Java 2 Connector (J2C) connection factory.

We can enable the optimized local adapter, install the ola.rar file into WebSphere Application Server and configure the adapter to work in the environment. The tasks performed by olaRar.py script file can also be done using the administrative console. To learn more about how to use the administrative console, read the topics, Installing a resource adapter archive and Enabling the server environment to use optimized local adapters.

The olaRar.py script file is located in the /<install_root>/mso/OLA/bin/ directory.
