Loading, Reloading, and Unloading Packages
Loading Packages
If the node packages are properly configured with a dependency on the adapter package, at startup Integration Server automatically loads or reloads all packages in the proper order:
*WmART package.
*Adapter package.
*Node package(s).
You must not manually reload the WmART package.
Reloading Packages Manually
You must typically reload the adapter package manually as you make changes to the adapter code. Similarly, the users of the adapter must reload their node packages manually when they modify the nodes. Reloading a node package will not cause its associated adapter package to be reloaded.
You can reload the adapter packages and the node packages by performing either of the following:
*In Integration Server Administrator, in the Management screen, click the reload icon in the Reload column.
*In Designer, right click the package and select the Reload Package option from the menu.
Unloading Packages
At shutdown, Integration Server unloads the packages in the reverse order in which it loaded them:
*Node package(s).
*Adapter package.
*WmART package (assuming the dependencies are correct).
