Note
	We have seen some problems with rmic in WebSphere. We have included a patch jar that is a temporary solution until WebSphere fixes the way ResourceBundles are loaded during rmic. Copy i18nhelper_websphere_patch.jar to the lib directory of your WebSphere installation if you see exceptions deploying JDO-based EJBs. These exceptions are usually of the ResourceNotFoundException type.

Installation is best performed by using the web admin interface. Open the admin console either by the Start menu item (in Windows), or by manually navigating to the admin port and URL appropriate to your installation. Select Resources / Resource Adapters from the left navigation panel. Select Install Rar on the list page. On the following screen upload kodo.rar to the server. On the New page, enter a name for the new Kodo installation such as Kodo JCA and select Ok.

You should now be back to the Resource Adapters list page. Select the name of the Kodo installation you provided. Click on the link marked J2C Connection Factories. This is where you can configure a particular instance of Kodo's JCA implementation. Select New and you will be brought to a configuration page. Be sure to fill in property values for Name and JNDI Name. Select Apply .

After the page refreshes, select the Custom Properties link at the bottom of the page. On the Custom Properties page, you can enter in your connection and other configuration properties as necessary.

When you are done providing configuration values, you will want to save your changes back to the system configuration. Select the Save link on the page or the Save link in the menu bar. You have now installed Kodo JCA.
