10.5.3. Undeploy an Application from a Standalone Server Instance with the Deployment Scanner
Prerequisites
This task shows a method for undeploying applications from a standalone server instance that have been deployed with the deployment scanner. As indicated in the Section 10.1, “About Application Deployment” topic, this method is retained for the convenience of developers, where the Management Console and Management CLI methods are recommended for application management under production environments.
Note
Procedure 10.10. Undeploy an Application using one of these Methods
Undeploy the application
There are two methods to undeploy the application depending on whether you want to delete the application from the deployment folder or only alter its deployment status.Undeploy by deleting the marker file
Delete the deployed application'sexample.war.deployed
marker file to trigger the deployment scanner to begin undeploying the application from the runtime.- Result
- The deployment scanner undeploys the application and creates a
example.war.undeployed
marker file. The application remains in the deployment folder.
Undeploy by removing the application
Remove the application from the deployment directory to trigger the deployment scanner to begin undeploying the application from the runtime.- Result
- The deployment scanner undeploys the application and creates a
filename.filetype.undeployed
marker file. The application is not present in the deployment folder.
The application file is undeployed from the application server and is not visible in the Deployments screen of the Management Console.
