Complete the deployment of a project WAR file

When the project WAR file is deployed on the application server, restart the application server if...

• We used the <configureApplicationServer> Ant task, or the manual instructions for deploying the project WAR file:
  • Using WAS with DB2 as database type for one or both of the databases.
  • Ure using WAS Liberty profile or Apache Tomcat.

• When we used the <updateApplicationServer> Ant task:

  • If we are using WebSphere Application Server (full profile or Liberty profile) and the MobileFirst runtime library (worklight-jee-library.jar) is changed.

  • If we are using Apache Tomcat.

For WAS ND with managed servers in the deployment manager:

• Restart the servers running during the deployment, and on which the project.web application has been installed.

  From deployment manager console...

  Applications | Application Types | WebSphere enterprise applications | IBM_Worklight_Console | Target specific application status

• We do not have to restart the deployment manager or the node agents.
