Overview

Use this tab to set the deployment order and staging mode of the application. The deployment with the lowest deployment order value will be deployed first.

Available staging modes are:

  1. nostage: does not copy application files to another location.

    A server in nostage mode will run applications deployed to it directly from their source directories. In this mode, the web application container detects changes to JSPs and servlets.

  2. stage: copies application files to server targeted in deployment

    The stage mode means that the application will automatically be copied to the staging directory on the server. The servers will initialize and run the application from this directory.

  3. external_stage: the user, and not WebLogic Server, copies application files to the server's staging directory.

    The deployment should be copied to a directory with the same name as the application name under each target server's staging directory.

    The external stage mode means that the application will be run from a staging directory, to which an external entity is expected to distribute the files. This mode is useful in environments that are managed by third-party tools.

Name

The name of this configuration. WebLogic Server uses an MBean to implement and persist the configuration.

Attribute: Name

Configurable: yes

Readable: yes

Writable: yes

Path

Return a URI pointing to the application component, usually on the Admin Server.

MBean: weblogic.management.
configuration.
WebAppComponentMBean

Attribute: URI

Configurable: yes

Dynamic: yes

Readable: yes

Writable: yes

Path

The location of the original source application files on the Admin Server. Relative paths are based on the root of the Admin Server installation directory. It is highly recommended to use absolute paths to minimize possible issues when upgrading the server.

If the application is not being staged (StagingMode==nostage) then the path must be valid on the target server.

The path to an Enterprise application (EAR) is the location of the .ear file or the root of the EAR if it is unarchived. e.g. Path="myapps/app.ear" is valid. If the application is a standalone module then the path is the parent directory of the module. e.g. If the module is located at myapps/webapp/webapp.war, the Path="myapps/webapp" is correct, whereas Path="myapps/webapp/webapp.war" is incorrect.

Attribute: Path

Configurable: yes

Readable: yes

Writable: yes

Staging Mode

The staging mode of this application, which overrides the managed server's StagingMode attribute. Staging involves distributing the application files from the admin server to the targeted managed servers' staging directory. Staging values are:

    1. nostage: does not copy application files to another location

    2. stage: copies application files to server targeted in deployment

    3. external_stage: the user, and not WebLogic Server, copies application files to the server's staging directory

MBean: weblogic.management.
configuration.
ApplicationMBean

Attribute: StagingMode

Default: null

Valid values:

  • "nostage"

  • "stage"

  • "external_stage"

Configurable: yes

Readable: yes

Writable: yes

Deployment Order

A priority that the server uses to determine when it deploys this Web Application relative to other Web Applications. Web Applications with the lowest Deployment Order value are deployed first.

There is no guarantee on the order of deployments with equal Deployment Order values. There is no guarantee of ordering across clusters.

MBean: weblogic.management.
configuration.
WebAppComponentMBean

Attribute: DeploymentOrder

Minimum: 0

Maximum: 2147483647

Default: 1000

Configurable: yes

Dynamic: yes

Readable: yes

Writable: yes
