This topic describes how to use the BizTalk Server Administration console to refresh a resource artifact. This updates the artifact information in the BizTalk Management database. Another way to do this is by adding the artifact to the application using the BTSTask AddResource Command with the overwrite option.
Resource artifacts are contained in an application's Resources folder. You might want to refresh a resource artifact if you make changes to the source file and want to replace the file in the application with the updated file.
Prerequisites
To refresh a resource artifact
-
Click Start, click Programs, click Microsoft BizTalk Server 2006, and then click BizTalk Server Administration.
-
In the console tree, expand BizTalk Server 2006 Administration, expand the BizTalk group containing the resource artifact to refresh, and then expand the application containing the artifact.
-
Click the Resources folder, right-click the file to refresh, and then click Modify.
-
In the Modify Resources dialog box, select the file to refresh, and then click Refresh.
-
Browse to the updated file with which you want to replace the current file, and then click OK.
The current file is replaced with the updated file. In addition, the configuration, settings displayed on the Options tab of the Modify Resources dialog box are applied to the refreshed file. For more information about changing these settings, click Help in the dialog box.
