DESCRIPTION
The deploy subcommand deploys applications to the server. Applications
can be enterprise applications, web applications, Enterprise JavaBeans
(EJB) modules, connector modules, and application client modules. If
the component is already deployed or already exists, it is forcibly
redeployed if the --force option is set to true (default is false).
The --createtables and --dropandcreatetables options are boolean flags
and therefore can take the values of true or false. These options are
only used during deployment of CMP beans that have not been mapped to a
database (that is, no sun-cmp-mappings.xml descriptor is provided in
the module's META-INF directory). They are ignored otherwise.
The --createtables and --dropandcreatetables options are mutually
exclusive; only one should be used. If drop and/or create tables fails,
the deployment does not fail; a warning message is provided in the log
file.
This subcommand is supported in remote mode only.
OPTIONS
--help, -?
Displays the help text for the subcommand.
--force
If set to true, redeploys the component even if the specified
component has already been deployed or already exists. Default is
false.
--virtualservers
One or more virtual server IDs. Multiple IDs are separated by
commas.
--contextroot
Valid only if the archive is a web module. It is ignored for other
archive types; it will be the value specified by default-context-path
in web.xml, if specified; defaults to filename without extension.
--precompilejsp
By default this option does not allow the JSP to be precompiled
during deployment. Instead, JSPs are compiled during runtime.
Default is false.
--verify
If set to true and the required verifier packages are installed
from the Update Tool, the syntax and semantics of the deployment
descriptor is verified. Default is false.
--name
Name of the deployable component.
The name can include an optional version identifier, which follows
the name and is separated from the name by a colon (:). The version
identifier must begin with a letter or number. It can contain
alphanumeric characters plus underscore (_), dash (-), and period
(.) characters. For more information about module and application
versions, see "Module and Application Versions" in Eclipse GlassFish
Application Deployment Guide.
--upload
Specifies whether the subcommand uploads the file to the DAS. In
most situations, this option can be omitted.
Valid values are as follows:
false
The subcommand does not upload the file and attempts to access
the file through the specified file name. If the DAS cannot
access the file, the subcommand fails.
For example, the DAS might be running as a different user than
the administration user and does not have read access to the
file. In this situation, the subcommand fails if the --upload
option is false.
true
The subcommand uploads the file to the DAS over the network
connection.
The default value depends on whether the DAS is on the host where
the subcommand is run or is on a remote host.
* If the DAS is on the host where the subcommand is run, the
default is false.
* If the DAS is on a remote host, the default is true.
If a directory filepath is specified, this option is ignored.
--retrieve
Retrieves the client stub JAR file from the server machine to the
local directory.
--dbvendorname
Specifies the name of the database vendor for which tables are
created. Supported values include db2, mssql, mysql, oracle, derby,
javadb, postgresql, and sybase. These values are case-insensitive.
If not specified, the value of the database-vendor-name attribute
in glassfish-ejb-jar.xml is used. If no value is specified, a
connection is made to the resource specified by the jndi-name
subelement of the cmp-resource element in the glassfish-ejb-jar.xml
file, and the database vendor name is read. If the connection
cannot be established, or if the value is not recognized, SQL-92
compliance is presumed.
--createtables
If specified as true, creates tables at deployment of an
application with unmapped CMP beans. If specified as false, tables
are not created. If not specified, the value of the
create-tables-at-deploy entry in the cmp-resource element of the
glassfish-ejb-jar.xml file determines whether or not tables are
created. No unique constraints are created for the tables.
--dropandcreatetables
If specified as true when the component is redeployed, the tables
created by the previous deployment are dropped before creating the
new tables. Applies to deployed applications with unmapped CMP
beans. Preexisting tables will not be dropped on the initial
deployment of an application or on a deployment that follows an
explicit undeploy. If specified as false, tables are neither
dropped nor created. If not specified, the tables are dropped if
the drop-tables-at-undeploy entry in the cmp-resource element of
the glassfish-ejb-jar.xml file is set to true, and the new tables
are created if the create-tables-at-deploy entry in the
cmp-resource element of the glassfish-ejb-jar.xml file is set to
true.
--uniquetablenames
Guarantees unique table names for all the beans and results in a
hash code added to the table names. This is useful if you have an
application with case-sensitive bean names. Applies to applications
with unmapped CMP beans.
--deploymentplan
Deploys the deployment plan, which is a JAR file that contains
GlassFish Server descriptors. Specify this option when deploying a
pure EAR file. A pure EAR file is an EAR without GlassFish Server
descriptors.
--altdd
Deploys the application using a Java EE standard deployment
descriptor that resides outside of the application archive. Specify
an absolute path or a relative path to the alternate deployment
descriptor file. The alternate deployment descriptor overrides the
top-level deployment descriptor packaged in the archive. For
example, for an EAR, the --altdd option overrides application.xml.
For a standalone module, the --altdd option overrides the top-level
module descriptor such as web.xml.
--runtimealtdd
Deploys the application using a GlassFish Server runtime deployment
descriptor that resides outside of the application archive. Specify
an absolute path or a relative path to the alternate deployment
descriptor file. The alternate deployment descriptor overrides the
top-level deployment descriptor packaged in the archive. For
example, for an EAR, the --runtimealtdd option overrides
glassfish-application.xml. For a standalone module, the
--runtimealtdd option overrides the top-level module descriptor
such as glassfish-web.xml. Applies to GlassFish Server deployment
descriptors only (glassfish-*.xml); the name of the alternate
deployment descriptor file must begin with glassfish-. Does not
apply to sun-*.xml deployment descriptors, which are deprecated.
--deploymentorder
Specifies the deployment order of the application. This is useful
if the application has dependencies and must be loaded in a certain
order at server startup. The deployment order is specified as an
integer. The default value is 100. Applications with lower numbers
are loaded before applications with higher numbers. For example, an
application with a deployment order of 102 is loaded before an
application with a deployment order of 110. If a deployment order
is not specified, the default value of 100 is assigned. If two
applications have the same deployment order, the first application
to be deployed is the first application to be loaded at server
startup.
The deployment order is typically specified when the application is
first deployed but can also be specified or changed after initial
deployment using the set subcommand. You can view the deployment
order of an application using the get subcommand.
--enabled
Allows users to access the application. If set to false, users will
not be able to access the application. This option enables the
application on the specified target instance or cluster. If you
deploy to the target domain, this option is ignored, since
deploying to the domain doesn't deploy to a specific instance or
cluster. The default is true.
--generatermistubs
If set to true, static RMI-IIOP stubs are generated and put into
the client.jar. If set to false, the stubs are not generated.
Default is false.
--availabilityenabled
This option controls whether high-availability is enabled for web
sessions and for stateful session bean (SFSB) checkpointing and
potentially passivation. If set to false (default) all web session
saving and SFSB checkpointing is disabled for the specified
application, web application, or EJB module. If set to true, the
specified application or module is enabled for high-availability.
Set this option to true only if high availability is configured and
enabled at higher levels, such as the server and container levels.
--asyncreplication
This option controls whether web session and SFSB states for which
high availability is enabled are first buffered and then replicated
using a separate asynchronous thread. If set to true (default),
performance is improved but availability is reduced. If the
instance where states are buffered but not yet replicated fails,
the states are lost. If set to false, performance is reduced but
availability is guaranteed. States are not buffered but immediately
transmitted to other instances in the cluster.
--lbenabled
This option controls whether the deployed application is available
for load balancing. The default is true.
--keepstate
This option controls whether web sessions, SFSB instances, and
persistently created EJB timers are retained between redeployments.
The default is false. 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
attribute) 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.
--libraries
A comma-separated list of library JAR files. Specify the library
JAR files by their relative or absolute paths. Specify relative
paths relative to domain-dir/lib/applibs. The libraries are made
available to the application in the order specified.
--target
Specifies the target to which you are deploying. Valid values are:
server
Deploys the component to the default server instance server and
is the default value.
domain
Deploys the component to the domain. If domain is the target
for an initial deployment, the application is deployed to the
domain, but no server instances or clusters reference the
application. If domain is the target for a redeployment (the
--force option is set to true), and dynamic reconfiguration is
enabled for the clusters or server instances that reference the
application, the referencing clusters or server instances
automatically get the new version of the application. If
redeploying, and dynamic configuration is disabled, the
referencing clusters or server instances do not get the new
version of the application until the clustered or standalone
server instances are restarted.
cluster_name
Deploys the component to every server instance in the cluster.
instance_name
Deploys the component to a particular stand-alone sever
instance.
--type
The packaging archive type of the component that is being deployed.
Possible values are as follows:
car
The component is packaged as a CAR file.
ear
The component is packaged as an EAR file.
ejb
The component is an EJB packaged as a JAR file.
osgi
The component is packaged as an OSGi bundle.
rar
The component is packaged as a RAR file.
war
The component is packaged as a WAR file.
--properties or --property
Optional keyword-value pairs that specify additional properties for
the deployment. The available properties are determined by the
implementation of the component that is being deployed or
redeployed. The --properties option and the --property option are
equivalent. You can use either option regardless of the number of
properties that you specify.
You can specify the following properties for a deployment:
jar-signing-alias
Specifies the alias for the security certificate with which the
application client container JAR file is signed. Java Web Start
will not run code that requires elevated permissions unless it
resides in a JAR file signed with a certificate that the user's
system trusts. For your convenience, GlassFish Server signs the
JAR file automatically using the certificate with this alias
from the domain's keystore. Java Web Start then asks the user
whether to trust the code and displays the GlassFish Server
certificate information. To sign this JAR file with a different
certificate, add the certificate to the domain keystore, then
use this property. For example, you can use a certificate from
a trusted authority, which avoids the Java Web Start prompt, or
from your own company, which users know they can trust. Default
is s1as, the alias for the self-signed certificate created for
every domain.
java-web-start-enabled
Specifies whether Java Web Start access is permitted for an
application client module. Default is true.
compatibility
Specifies the GlassFish Server release with which to be
backward compatible in terms of JAR visibility requirements for
applications. The only allowed value is v2, which refers to Sun
GlassFish Enterprise Server version 2 or Sun Java System
Application Server version 9.1 or 9.1.1. The Java EE 6 platform
specification imposes stricter requirements than Java EE 5 did
on which JAR files can be visible to various modules within an
EAR file. In particular, application clients must not have
access to EJB JAR files or other JAR files in the EAR file
unless references use the standard Java SE mechanisms
(extensions, for example) or the Java EE library-directory
mechanism. Setting this property to v2 removes these Java EE 6
restrictions.
keepSessions={false|true}
Superseded by the --keepstate option.
If the --force option is set to true, this property can by used
to specify whether active sessions of the application that is
being redeployed are preserved and then restored when the
redeployment is complete. Applies to HTTP sessions in a web
container. Default is false.
false
Active sessions of the application are not preserved and
restored (default).
true
Active sessions of the application are preserved and
restored.
If any active session of the application fails to be
preserved or restored, none of the sessions will be
available when the redeployment is complete. However, the
redeployment continues and a warning is logged.
To preserve active sessions, GlassFish Server serializes
the sessions and saves them in memory. To restore the
sessions, the class loader of the newly redeployed
application deserializes any sessions that were previously
saved.
preserveAppScopedResources
If set to true, preserves any application-scoped resources and
restores them during redeployment. Default is false.
Other available properties are determined by the implementation of
the component that is being redeployed.
For components packaged as OSGi bundles (--type=osgi), the deploy
subcommand accepts properties arguments to wrap a WAR file as a WAB
(Web Application Bundle) at the time of deployment. The subcommand
looks for a key named UriScheme and, if present, uses the key as a
URL stream handler to decorate the input stream. Other properties
are used in the decoration process. For example, the GlassFish
Server OSGi web container registers a URL stream handler named
webbundle, which is used to wrap a plain WAR file as a WAB. For
more information about usage, see the example in this help page.
OPERANDS
file_archive|filepath
The path to the archive that contains the application that is being
deployed. This path can be a relative path or an absolute path.
The archive can be in either of the following formats:
* An archive file, for example, /export/JEE_apps/hello.war.
If the --upload option is set to true, this is the path to the
deployable file on the local client machine. If the --upload
option is set to false, this is the path to the file on the
server machine.
* A directory that contains the exploded format of the deployable
archive. This is the path to the directory on the server
machine.
If you specify a directory, the --upload option is ignored.
EXAMPLES
Example 1, Deploying an Enterprise Application
This example deploys the enterprise application packaged in the
Cart.ear file to the default server instance server. You can use
the --target option to deploy to a different server instance or to
a cluster.
asadmin> deploy Cart.ear
Application deployed successfully with name Cart.
Command deploy executed successfully
Example 2, Deploying a Web Application With the Default Context Root
This example deploys the web application in the hello.war file to
the default server instance server. You can use the --target option
to deploy to a different server instance or to a cluster.
asadmin> deploy hello.war
Application deployed successfully with name hello.
Command deploy executed successfully
Example 3, Forcibly Deploying a Web Application With a Specific Context
Root
This example forcibly deploys the web application in the hello.war
file. The context root of the deployed web application is
greetings. If the application has already been deployed, it is
redeployed.
asadmin> deploy --force=true --contextroot greetings hello.war
Application deployed successfully with name hello.
Command deploy executed successfully
Example 4, Deploying an Enterprise Bean
This example deploys a component based on the EJB specification
(enterprise bean) with CMP and creates the database tables used by
the bean.
This example uses the --target option. The target in this example
is an existing cluster, cluster1.
asadmin> deploy --createtables=true --target cluster1 EmployeeEJB.jar
Application deployed successfully with name EmployeeEJB.
Command deploy executed successfully
Example 5, Deploying a Connector Module
This example deploys a connector module that is packaged in a RAR
file.
This example uses the --target option. The target in this example
is an existing standalone server instance that does not belong to a
cluster.
asadmin> deploy --target myinstance jdbcra.rar
Application deployed successfully with name jdbcra.
Command deploy executed successfully
Example 6, Specifying the Deployment Order for an Application
This example specifies the deployment order for two applications.
The cart application is loaded before the horse application at
server startup.
Some lines of output are omitted from this example for readability.
asadmin> deploy --deploymentorder 102 --name cart cart.war
...
asadmin> deploy --deploymentorder 110 --name horse horse.war
...
Example 7, Deploying an Application Using an Alternate Jakarta EE 10
Deployment Descriptor File
This example deploys an application using a Java EE standard
deployment descriptor file that resides outside of the application
archive.
asadmin> deploy --altdd path_to_alternate_descriptor cart.ear
Application deployed successfully with name cart.
Command deploy executed successfully
Example 8, Deploying an Application Using an Alternate GlassFish Server
Deployment Descriptor File
This example deploys an application using a GlassFish Server
runtime deployment descriptor file that resides outside of the
application archive.
asadmin> deploy --runtimealtdd path_to_alternate_runtime_descriptor horse.ear
Application deployed successfully with name horse.
Command deploy executed successfully
Example 9, Wrapping a WAR File as a WAB
This example wraps a plain WAR file as a WAB when an OSGi bundle is
deployed, and is specific to components packaged as OSGi bundles.
The backslash (\) character is used to escape characters in the
command. For more information about escape characters in options
for the asadmin utility, see the asadmin(1M) help page.
asadmin deploy --type osgi \
--properties "UriScheme=webbundle:Bundle-SymbolicName=bar:\
Import-Package=jakarta.servlet;jakarta.servlet.http;
%20version\\=3.0;resolution\\:
=mandatory:Web-ContextPath=/foo" \
/tmp/test_sample1.war
Application deployed successfully with name sample1.
Command deploy executed successfully
