You can also deploy manually, by unpacking the files in the COBOL archive file .car for your service and adding these to enterprise server, using Enterprise Server Administration. The .car file is created when .
The .car file is in your deployment folder
myservice
/Repos/
myservice.deploy. The significant files in the COBOL archive are:
- The interface definition table (IDT). For example myservice.idt.
- The implementation package. For example myprogram.int and myprogram.idy
- The data required. For example mydata.idx and mydata.dat
- The manifest file manifest.mf, which controls the deployment process.
To deploy the service interface manually, you use Enterprise Server Administration to:
- Add the implementation package. Among other things, you specify the path and name of the IDT, the executable file and the data files.
- Add the service. Among other things, you specify the listener to use on this service, and the implementation package that is to provide the service functionality.
