A component of this type models an enterprise application. The component can contain either an enterprise application archive (EAR) or the expanded version of an EAR as a package.
You can use one of the following browsers to select your enterprise application for this component type:
A WebLogic Administration Server browser from which you can select one of the installed applications and its relevant settings. The Administration Server browser provides an alphabetical list of enterprise applications on the Administration Server. You can choose one enterprise application for a component.
A file system browser from which you can select the EAR file to create a component that does not include settings. The file system browser provides a list of files and directories from which you can choose. You can choose to see only those files or type *.ear in the browser.
To install an enterprise application component, you must use a WebLogic Managed Server or cluster as the target host. The installation process performs three main tasks:
Installs the EAR file on the target.
Registers the EAR with the WebLogic Administration Server.
Applies any properties previously captured during domain browse.
You can install the enterprise application by navigating to the application's component Details page and running the Install component procedure.
When you uninstall an enterprise application component, the enterprise application no longer targets the virtual host. If the enterprise application is not targeted elsewhere, the registration component is removed from the Administration Server.
You can uninstall the enterprise application by navigating to the application's component Details page and running the Uninstall component procedure.
