After a file
is no longer needed, you can remove the file
from a Java Platform, Enterprise Edition (Java EE)
application or module deployed on a server.
Before you begin
This topic assumes
that you have installed an application
or module file on a server and that you want to delete the file.
About this task
Removing a file deletes the file from the product configuration
repository and deletes the file from the file system of all nodes
where the file is installed.
You can use the administrative
console to remove a file from an application or module.
Procedure
- Remove a file from an application.
- Go to the Enterprise applications page.
Click in
the console navigation tree.
- Select
the application that contains a file you want
removed.
- Click Remove File. The Remove a file page is displayed
- Select the URI of the file that you want removed from
the application.
- Back up the application.
Under Export
before removing file, select the application name and
then specify the location to which you want the file exported.
- Click OK to remove
the file.
- Remove a file
from a module.
- Go to the Manage modules
page.
Click in the console
navigation tree.
- Select the module
from which you want to delete a file.
- Click Remove
File. The Remove a file from a module
page is displayed.
- Select the
URI of the file that you want removed from
the module.
- Back up the application.
Under Export
before removing file, select the application name and
then specify the location to which you want the file exported.

Results
The
file is exported to the designated location and removed
from the application or module. The application or stand-alone Web
module that had a file removed is restarted so the changes take effect.
What to do next
Save
the changes to your administrative configuration.
On single-server
products, application binaries are deleted after you save the changes.
