Hi,

Basically SMX4 leverage pax-url to look up artifacts during runtime, you can take a look at etc/org.ops4j.pax.url.mvn.cfg to get ideas where pax-url will try to find the artifacts, roughly the sequence is
SMX4_HOME/system folder
your maven local repo folder
org.ops4j.pax.url.mvn.repositories listed in etc/ org.ops4j.pax.url.mvn.cfg
so if it can't find it locally, it will use remote url to download.

Once find and install the bundle, it will cache it in SMX4_HOME/data folder, so unless you remove the data folder, it won't try to find the artifacts which already get installed.

So if you don't have internet connection, you need ensure your maven local repo have all necessary bundles, or the nexus as I mentioned before is also a popularly used solution, only this nexus server can access internet but your production server is still in the intranet.

Btw, FuseSource provide offline repo with each FUSE ESB release which typically address the concern you encountered here, but it's not free.

Hi Freeman,
I could understand this issue from other similar post.
But my concern is:
a) Does SMX4 require internet connectivity every time it restarts or only on first startup it downloads all necessary artifacts and does not need it
later.

b) Is there any manual way of providing artifacts to SMX4?
Because if SMX4 downloads artifacts at runtime then it may take more time (which can be variable based on internet speed). But, as per requirement our
complete solution should come-up within a given time.
c) In my complex production environment, I doubt that production systems will be connected to public internet. Is there any way SMX4 can be bundled
as out-of-box/complete solution within our solution?
