Installing Plugins Using Enterprise Manager Web Applications Manager

This procedure installs Java CAPS component plugins using the Java CAPS Enterprise Manager Web Applications Manager. These plugins are listed under the Downloads tab in the Java CAPS Uploader, and include adapter plugins as well as plugins for other product components, such as Web Services, Composite Page Designer, and Business Process Manager. You do not need to manually download these files; the Enterprise Manager accesses them directly from the Repository.
