I have quite a few questions here.

1) How to create multiple .war files within one .ear...smthing shud be done 
to that application.xml but what?

2) Once that is done, how do i share resources amongst those .wars?

3) How shud i share resources among multiple .ears?Should  i use the 'shared
' folder dor that purpose?

The resources say cud be jar files or classes.

Thanks,
Arun

Not sure about number 1.

2. Depending on the resource you can do one of several thing. If it's just s
imple Java objects you can place the *.jar file in the {WAS_HOME}/lib d
irectory and restart the servers. This makes the objects availible in the se
rvers class path. If it is conne
ctions that needs pooling there is a deployment method to set them up with y
ou application server (I haven't used this so see the documentation, but the
 deployment can be done through the administrative web interface). Third way
 to do it is to create a Po
rtletService. See the link below for more info as well as the portal info ce
nter. When deoplying the service you will need to add the jar file to the li
braries.xml in {WAS_HOME}/config/cells/{node_name}/nodes/{nod
e_name} as well as the propperties files m
entiond in the documentation.

3. The points in 2 are valid here as well appart from the PortletService one
, that is only avalible in the PortletContext.
