Create a separate broker archive (BAR) file for each configuration that you want to deploy to integration servers on your brokers.
Follow these steps to create a BAR file by using the IBM® Integration Toolkit:
A file with a .bar extension is created and is displayed under the application, library, or integration project, in a folder called BARs. The BAR file editor opens. All BAR files are also shown in a separate category in the Application Development view called BARs. Each BAR file listed here displays information about the project in which the BAR file is stored.
If you want to use the mqsipackagebar command to create your BAR file, you must compile any message sets or Java™ code before you create the BAR file. For more information, see Compiling resources for the mqsipackagebar command.
You can create broker archive (BAR) files on machines that do not have IBM Integration Bus installed, by using the mqsipackagebar command. To configure your environment so that you can run the mqsipackagebar command on a machine that does not have IBM Integration Bus installed, see Configuring environments without the Integration Bus component installed.
When you create BAR files by using the mqsipackagebar command, add deployable resources to ensure that your BAR file can be deployed.
