Enabling or Disabling the Deployment Scanner in JBoss EAP 6, 7, and 8

Solution Verified - Updated -

Issue

  • How to enable/disable the deployment scanner and hot deployment on JBoss EAP 6/7/8?
  • deployment-scanner is set to 0 by default in standalone-full-ha.xml.
  • Is it better to disable the scan-interval in a production environment?
  • What is the recommended way to disable the deployment-scanner in JBoss EAP 6/7/8?
  • I'm trying to see we have a way to disable the deployment scan and keep the application in a folder and install it only during the restart of the server.
  • What is the 0 in scanner interval? Is there a way to remove the scan interval?
  • We would like to know the meaning of scan-interval="-1". Could you please verify if that means that the deployment-scanner is enabled or not? If enabled, which part of the attached standalone-full-ha.xml is that?
