Deploying a CBA to the operational server from IBM WebSphere Application Server admin console

To deploy a CBA to the operational server using IBM® WebSphere® Application Server admin console, take the following steps:

1. Ensure that you have generated code for a project after adding it to, or updated it in, the CBA.
2. Ensure that you have run the SQL scripts in the MDMSharedResources/sql directory that corresponds to your installed database, and that you have restarted the IBM WebSphere Application Server. For more information, see Running the SQL scripts to prepare for deployment.
3. In the MDM Workbench, right click the CBA project and click Export.
4. Select the export destination OSGi > OSGi Composite Bundle (CBA). Verify that the bundles you are exporting include your operational server module bundle.
5. Click Browse and choose a location to save the CBA file, then click Finish.
