Sun Java System Application Server Enterprise Edition 8.1 2005Q2 Administration Guide

Development Environment

In a development environment, simply redeploy the application. The application is redeployed to the domain, and all targets that reference it automatically receive the new version if dynamic reconfiguration is enabled for the target server instances. Dynamic reconfiguration is enabled by default. If dynamic reconfiguration is not enabled for a server instance, it continues to use the old version until the server instance is restarted.
