Resource Search & Download

This chapter describes how to search for and download system resources.

1. Overview

In AnyLink, a resource, such as BizTx, BizTx Group, user class, and adapter, is an element that runs on or provides information to the engine. Various resources in AnyLink can be created and deployed through WebAdmin and Studio. For efficient resource management, resources are grouped in a BizTx/BizTx Group and resource versioning is provided through DIS.

Deployed resources are also registered on the runtime server. The runtime server has information about most of the resources and deployment does not affect the operation of the runtime server engine. However, shared libraries must be deployed before they can be used on the runtime server engine. A deployed resource that is registered on DIS can be downloaded and used by multiple users.

This chapter describes how to find and use AnyLink resources. For information about registering resources on DIS and resource versioning, refer to Deployment & Undeployment.

For detailed information about resources, refer to AnyLink Runtime Engine Server Guide.
