*fileName.xhtml - A JSF Facelets template that is responsible for rendering the shell.
*WEB-INF/shells/fileName_xhtml.xml - An xmlImport file that contains instructions for registering the OpenUI Shell page template with My webMethods Server during deployment of the OpenUI project. The file contains instructions for creating or updating My webMethods Server resources, and for creating a shell rule.
