Multiple Instance Deployments

If your Sun Java System Portal Server deployment involves multiple instances, you must manually deploy the communication channels to each additional instance of Sun Java System Portal Server and restart each instance. To deploy, type:

portal-server-base/SUNWportal/bin/deploy redeploy --instance instance-name --deploy_admin_password deploy-admin-password

where:

instance-name is the name for that particular non-default instance

deploy-admin-password is the administrator password for the web container. The web container administrator password is required only when the web container is Sun Java System Application Server or BEA WebLogic Server. If you include the password when using Sun Java System Web Server or IBM WebSphere Application Server, the password is ignored.

Multiple Instance Deployments lists the commands for manually deploying communication channels to two non-default Sun Java System Portal Server instances and for restarting those instances, where myinstance1 and myinstance2 are non-default Sun Java System Portal Server instance names and Admin is the web container's administrator password.
