To install an application in the production environment, take the
files copied to the production server and create an installable EAR file.
Before you begin
Before starting this task, you must have a JAR file that contains
the module and services you are deploying to the server. See
Preparing to deploy to a server for more information.
Why and when to perform this task
The
serviceDeploy command takes a JAR file, any
other dependent EAR, JAR, RAR, WAR and ZIP files and builds an EAR file that
you can install on a server.
Steps for this task
- Locate the JAR file that contains the module
to deploy.
- Issue the serviceDeploy command using the JAR file
from the previous step as input.
This step creates an
EAR file.
Note: Perform the following steps at an administrative console.
- Select the EAR file to install in the administrative
console of the server.
- Click Save to install the
EAR file.
