Submit jobs to manage applications
In a flexible management environment, you can submit jobs to install and administer enterprise applications on managed targets of the job manager and to uninstall files from targets. An enterprise application is an EAR file that conforms to Java EE specifications.
Before submitting a job, start the job manager and the target targets. If a target is a stand-alone application server, also start the admin agent.
Your ID at the job manager must be authorized for the administrator role or the operator role to submit jobs. When you submit a job, you can specify a user name and password for authentication and authorization at the target or targets. When you submit a job to multiple targets, the user name and password or the credentials for the submitter must be applicable to all of the job targets.
Before you can install an application, run a job that copies the enterprise application file to managed targets. Remember any destination value specified when distributing the file. See the topic on the distribute file job.
The topics in this section describe how to install and administer enterprise application files by running jobs in the job manager console or the dmgr console.
Instead of using a console, you can run wsadmin commands in the AdministrativeJobs command group. See the Administrative job types topic.
Procedure
- Run the Install application job to deploy an enterprise application on managed targets.
- Run the Start application job.
- Run the Stop application job.
- Run the Update application job.
- Run the Uninstall application job to remove an enterprise application from managed targets.
What to do next
On the Job status page, click the ID of the job and view the job status. If the job is not successful, view any error messages that result from running the job, correct the error condition, and submit the job again.
