The following table describes attributes for the sun-appserv-undeploy task.

Table 3–4 The sun-appserv-undeploy Attributes


Attribute	Default	Description
`name`	file name without extension	(optional if a `component` or `fileset` subelement is present or the `file` attribute is specified, otherwise required) The display name for the component being undeployed.
`file`	none	(optional) The component to undeploy. If this attribute refers to a file, it must be a valid archive. If this attribute refers to a directory, it must contain a valid archive in which all components have been exploded.
`droptables`	`sun-ejb-jar.xml` entry	(optional) If `true`, causes database tables that were automatically created when the bean(s) were last deployed to be dropped when the bean(s) are undeployed. If `false`, does not drop tables. If not specified, the value of the `drop-tables-at-undeploy` attribute in `sun-ejb-jar.xml` is used. For details, see Generation Options and Generation Options for CMP.
`cascade`	`false`	(optional) If `true`, deletes all connection pools and connector resources associated with the resource adapter being undeployed. If `false`, undeployment fails if any pools or resources are still associated with the resource adapter. This attribute is applicable to connectors (resource adapters) and applications with connector modules.
`user`	`admin`	(optional) The user name used when logging into the application server.
`passwordfile`	none	(optional) File containing passwords. The password from this file is retrieved for communication with the application server.
`host`	`localhost`	(optional) Target server. When deploying to a remote server, use the fully qualified host name.
`port`	4848	(optional) The administration port on the target server.
`asinstalldir`	see description	(optional) The installation directory for the local Application Server installation, which is used to find the administrative classes. If not specified, the command checks to see if the `asinstalldir` parameter has been set. Otherwise, administrative classes must be in the system classpath.

Examples of `sun-appserv-undeploy`

Here is a simple application undeployment script with many implied attributes:

<sun-appserv-undeploy name="simpleapp" passwordfile="${passwordfile}" />

Here is an equivalent script showing all the implied attributes:

<sun-appserv-undeploy
 name="simpleapp"
 user="admin"
 passwordfile="${passwordfile}"
 host="localhost"
 port="4848"
 asinstalldir="${asinstalldir}" />

This example demonstrates using the archive files (EAR and WAR, in this case) for the undeployment, using the component name (for undeploying the EJB component in this example), and undeploying multiple components.

<sun-appserv-undeploy passwordfile="${passwordfile}">
 <component file="${assemble}/simpleapp.ear"/>
 <component file="${assemble}/simpleservlet.war"/>
 <component name="simplebean" />
</sun-appserv-undeploy>
