A WAR file or Web Archive file is an archive, similar to a ZIP or JAR file, with a restricted structure. A WAR file may contain static HTML pages, static images, JavaServer Pages, and Java-based servlets, plus an XML file known as the deployment descriptor.

When Process Commander is installed, up to four WAR files from the installation media are deployed.

• prdbutil.war — Supports installation and upgrade processing. Consult the Installation Guide for information on this application.
• prweb.war — Process Commander
• prhelp.war — supports this Application Developer help system
• jmxclient.war — System Management application (prsysmgmt)

In a multinode system, only the prpc.war file needs to be deployed on each node; the other applications can be shared across nodes.
