Canceling an application validation

You can cancel validation of an edition and return the application edition to inactive state.

 

Before you begin

You must have an application installed and in the validate state.

 

About this task

By canceling an application in validation mode, the application returns to the inactive state. The deployment target for the edition is reset to its original deployment target. When you cancel validation mode, the validation target is deleted.

 

Procedure

• Complete the following steps to cancel an application validation:

  1. In the administrative console, click Applications > Edition control center > application_name .

  2. Select the application that is in validate state and click Cancel Validation.

  3. View the cancel validation status page to view each step of canceling the validation. During the validation cancellation, the following actions occur:

     • The application is set to the inactive state.

     • The validation cleanup process is performed

     • The validation target is deleted.

     The edition control center shows that edition is now in the inactive state, and the manage editions page shows that the deployment target for the edition is restored to its original deployment target. The dynamic cluster page shows that the validation dynamic cluster no longer exists, and the servers page shows the cloned servers no longer exist.

  4. Verify that the cancelation of validation occurred correctly. Click Applications > Enterprise applications or Applications > All applications. Edit your edition 2.0 application.

     • For PHP and WebSphere^® Application Server Community Edition applications:

       Verify that the context root, deployment targets, and so on are restored to the original cluster.

     • For Java™ 2 Platform, Enterprise Edition (J2EE) applications:

       Select Manage modules. Verify that edition 2.0 is mapped to the original cluster. From the Map EJB references to beans detail view, verify that the Java Naming and Directory Interface name is adjusted for the original target name.

• Complete the following steps to remove an application in validation mode if you are using an earlier version of WebSphere Virtual Enterprise:

  1. In the administrative console, click Applications > All applications.

  2. Select the application edition that is in validation mode and click Stop. Next, click Submit Action.

  3. Delete the routing rules that are specific to the application edition. Save your changes and synchronize the nodes.

  4. Uninstall the application from the validation target. Select the application edition that is in validation mode and click Remove.

  5. Stop the validation target if the target is an application server, or stop the members of the validation target if the target is a cluster.

  6. Delete the target.

 

Results

The application edition is inactive and is restored back to its original deployment target.
