bnd is the right tool to make the bundle.
If you are using maven, then use maven-bundle-plugin.
If you are using Ant, then use ant plugin of bnd.
You can drop your bundles in glassfish/modules/.
Can you tell a bit more about what kind of container you are writing? If
you are using any of the HK2 annotations like @Service, then you must
use hk2-maven-plugin in conjunction with maven-bundle-plugin to make
your bundle.
