1. Start Geronimo.
2. Create a directory repo2 under <geronimo_home>, for example, <geronimo_home>/repo2.
3. Create a file repo2.xml under the <geronimo_home>/repo2 directory, for example:

   Code Block
   title repo2.xml borderStyle solid
   <module xmlns="http://geronimo.apache.org/xml/ns/deployment-1.2"> <environment> <moduleId> <groupId>org.example.configs</groupId> <artifactId>myrepo</artifactId> <version>2.2</version> <type>car</type> </moduleId> <dependencies> <dependency> <groupId>org.apache.geronimo.framework</groupId> <artifactId>j2ee-system</artifactId> <type>car</type> </dependency> </dependencies> <hidden-classes/> <non-overridable-classes/> </environment> <gbean name="Repo2" class="org.apache.geronimo.system.repository.Maven2Repository"> <attribute name="root">repo2/</attribute> <attribute name="resolveToServer">false</attribute> <reference name="ServerInfo"> <name>ServerInfo</name> </reference> </gbean> <gbean name="Local2" class="org.apache.geronimo.system.configuration.RepositoryConfigurationStore"> <reference name="Repository"> <name>Repo2</name> </reference> </gbean> </module>

4. Deploy the repo2.xml from the command prompt:
   deploy(.bat|.sh) deploy <Geronimo_HOME>/repo2/repo2.xml
   .
   To verify that the repository is successfully deployed, you can list the targets on the current server with the command:
   deploy(.bat|.sh) list-targets, and you can see the following information:

   No Format
   Available Targets: org.apache.geronimo.framework/j2ee-system/2.2/car?ServiceModule=org.apache.geronimo.framework/j2ee-system/2.2/car,j2eeType=ConfigurationStore,name=Local org.example.configs/myrepo/2.2/car?ServiceModule=org.example.configs/myrepo/2.2/car,j2eeType=ConfigurationStore,name=Local2

5. Update the etc/org.ops4j.pax.url.mvn.cfg file, add the new second repository to the org.ops4j.pax.url.mvn.defaultRepositories property
   The property org.ops4j.pax.url.mvn.defaultRepositories maintains a comma-delimited list of repositories that are used by the run-time server.
   The format is: file: < /absolute/path/to/repo2 > @snapshots
   And if a variable it used, the new repository just deployed would be defined as:

   Code Block
   file:${org.apache.geronimo.server.dir}/repo2@snapshots

   And the resulting property would be set to something that looks like this:

   Code Block
   org.ops4j.pax.url.mvn.defaultRepositories=file:${karaf.home}/repository@snapshots,file:${org.apache.geronimo.server.dir}/repo2@snapshots

   The first defined repository is the default and primary GERONIMO_HOME/repository, the second one is the new repo2 repository just created.
