Use this page to deploy Enterprise ARchive (EAR) files. You can use this page to enter or edit the unique name for your application, specify redeployment, and JSP precompiler settings. By default, the name of the EAR file will be displayed. The filename extension of the EAR file will not be displayed.
You should package the deployment descriptor, enterprise bean class, interfaces, and helper classes into an EJB JAR file. The EJB JAR files is the module that stores the enterprise bean. An EJB JAR file is portable and may be used for different applications. To assemble a J2EE application, you package one or more modules--such as EJB JAR files--into an EAR file, the archive file that holds the application. When you deploy the EAR file that contains the bean's EJB JAR file, you also deploy the enterprise bean onto the J2EE server.
