To Install Updates From a Local Repository

After configuring a GlassFish Server installation to use a local repository server, as described in the previous procedures in this section, GlassFish Server updates inside a closed network are performed normally. The only difference is that the GlassFish Server installation being updated inside the closed network will use a local repository server instead of the public repository servers.

Perform the following procedure on each GlassFish Server installation that will be updated.

Before You Begin

Ensure that each GlassFish Server installation that will be updated is configured to use the local repository server, as described in To Configure a GlassFish Server Installation to Use a Local Repository Server Inside a Closed Network.

1. Stop GlassFish Server.

   See To Stop a Domain.

2. Change to the GlassFish Server installation directory.

   cd as-install

   ---

   Note –

   The remainder of this procedure must be performed from within the GlassFish Server installation directory.

3. Use either the graphical Update Tool or the pkg command-line utility to perform the desired updates.

   For detailed instructions on updating or installing GlassFish Server components, see Updating Installed Components.

4. Start GlassFish Server.
