To Redeploy a Deployed Application
Redeploying an application deploys a new version of the application while preserving the
settings and other options with which the application was originally deployed.
Before You Begin
Ensure that the application that you are redeploying is already deployed.
- In the navigation tree, select the Applications node.
The Applications page opens.
- In the Deployed Applications table, click Redeploy in the row for the application
that you are redeploying.
The application name can include an optional version identifier, which follows the name
and is separated from the name by a colon (:). For more information
about module and application versions, see the Module and Application Versions in Oracle GlassFish Server 3.1 Application Deployment Guide.
The Redeploy Applications or Modules page opens.
- Specify the location of the application to redeploy.
- If the application is an archive file that resides on or is
accessible from the client machine, select the option Packaged File to Be Uploaded
to the Server.
The client machine is the host on which you are viewing the Administration
Console through a browser.
Click Browse to browse to the file, or type the full path
to the file.
- If the application is an archive file that resides on the server machine,
or is an unpackaged application from an exploded directory, select the option Local
Packaged File or Directory That Is Accessible From the GlassFish Server.
The server machine is the host that is running the domain administration server
(DAS).
Click Browse Files to browse to a file, or Browse Folders to
browse to a directory. Alternatively, type the full path name to the file
or directory. Deploying from an exploded directory is for advanced developers and is
not recommended for production environments.
- Select the Precompile JSPs checkbox to precompile JavaServer Pages (JSP) files.
If this option is disabled, JSP files are compiled at runtime when they
are first accessed. This option is disabled by default.
- Select the Run Verifier checkbox to verify deployment descriptors before redeployment.
If this option is selected and if verification fails, redeployment is not performed.
The verifier examines the structure and content of the deployment descriptors. Verification of large
applications is often time-consuming. This option is disabled by default.
Verifier packages must be installed from the Update Tool or a warning is
logged and this option is ignored.
- Select the Keep State checkbox to retain web sessions, SFSB instances, and persistently
created EJB timers between redeployments.
This option is disabled by default. This option is supported only on the
default server instance, named server. It is not supported and ignored for any other
target.
Some changes to an application between redeployments prevent this feature from working properly.
For example, do not change the set of instance variables in the SFSB
bean class.
For web applications, this feature is applicable only if in the glassfish-web-app.xml
file the persistence-type attribute of the session-manager element is file.
For stateful session bean instances, the persistence type without high availability is set
in the server (the SFSB Persistence Type option) and must be set to
file, which is the default and recommended value.
If any active web session, SFSB instance, or EJB timer fails to
be preserved or restored, none of these will be available when the redeployment is
complete. However, the redeployment continues and a warning is logged.
To preserve active state data, GlassFish Server serializes the data and saves it
in memory. To restore the data, the class loader of the newly
redeployed application deserializes the data that was previously saved.
- Select the Preserve Application Scoped Resources checkbox to preserve any application-scoped resources and
restore them during redeployment.
This option is disabled by default.
- Click OK.
