- Remove
-
Removes a module from the deployed application. The module is deleted from
the application in the WAS configuration repository
and also from all the nodes where the application is installed and running
(or expected to run). If the application is running on a node when the module
file is deleted from the node as a result of configuration synchronization
then the Web module is stopped before deleting it from the file system of
the node. The entire application continues to run without any interruption.
An exception to this rule is if the class loader setting for the application
is marked as "application" instead of "module", the default setting. If the
class loader setting is application, the entire application is stopped and
restarted during module file deletion on the node. Also if the security provider
configured for the Application Server cell does not support dynamic module
updates, then the entire application is stopped and restarted.
- Update
-
Opens a wizard that helps you update a module in an application. If a module
has the same URI as a module already existing in the application, the new
module replaces the existing module. If the new module does not exist in the
application, it is added to the deployed application. If the application is
running on a node when the module file is updated on the node as a result
of configuration synchronization then only that Web module is stopped, the
module file is updated on the node's file system, and then the application
is restarted. The rest of the application continues to run without any interruption.
An exception to this rule is if the class loader setting for the application
is marked as "application" instead of "module", the default setting. If the
class loader setting is application, the entire application is stopped and
restarted during module file update on the node. Also if the security provider
configured for Application Server cell does not support dynamic module updates,
then the entire application is stopped and restarted.
- Remove File
-
Deletes a file from a module of a deployed application. The file is also
deleted from all the nodes where the module is installed after configuration
is synchronized with nodes. If this file belongs to the META-INF or WEB-INF directory
of the Web module then the Web module is stopped and restarted when the file
is deleted from the node. If this is a non-metadata file (such as .class, .jsp files
or static content such as.htm, .gif files) then nothing in the
application is stopped for changes to take effect.
- Module
-
Name of the module.
- URI
-
Specifies a URI that, when resolved relative to the application
URL, specifies the location of the module archive contents on a file system.
The URI must match the ModuleRef URI in the deployment descriptor of an application
if the module was packaged as part of a deployed application or enterprise
archive (EAR) file.
- Module type
-
Specifies the type of module.
- Server
-
Specifies the target of the server or cluster of application servers.
