Examples

You can control multiple servers using a single task. In this example, two servers are started, each using a different password. Only the second server is started in debug mode.

<sun-appserv-instance action="start">
<server host="greg.sun.com" passwordfile="${password.greg}"/>
<server host="joe.sun.com" passwordfile="${password.joe}"
	 debug="true"/>
</sun-appserv-instance>

You can create instances on multiple servers using a single task. This example creates a new instance named qa on two different servers. Both servers use the same password.

<sun-appserv-instance action="create" instanceport="8080"
	 instance="qa" passwordfile="${passwordfile}>
<server host="greg.sun.com"/>
<server host="joe.sun.com"/>
</sun-appserv-instance>

These instances can also be removed from their respective servers:

<sun-appserv-instance action="delete" instance="qa"
	 passwordfile="${passwordfile}>
<server host="greg.sun.com"/>
<server host="joe.sun.com"/>
</sun-appserv-instance>

You can specify different instance names and instance ports using attributes of the nested server element:

<sun-appserv-instance action="create" passwordfile="${passwordfile}>
<server host="greg.sun.com" instanceport="8080" instance="qa"/>
<server host="joe.sun.com" instanceport="9090"
	instance="integration-test"/>
</sun-appserv-instance>

You can deploy multiple components to multiple servers (see the component nested element. This example deploys each component to two Application Server instances running on remote servers. Both servers use the same password.

<sun-appserv-deploy passwordfile="${passwordfile}" 
  asinstalldir="/opt/s1as8" >
<server host="greg.sun.com"/>
<server host="joe.sun.com"/>
<component file="${assemble}/simpleapp.ear"/>
<component file="${assemble}/simpleservlet.war"
	 contextroot="test"/>
<component file="${assemble}/simplebean.jar"/>
</sun-appserv-deploy>

You can also undeploy multiple components from multiple servers. This example shows the same three components being removed from two different instances. Both servers use the same password.

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

You can enable or disable components on multiple servers. This example shows the same three components being enabled on two different instances. Both servers use the same password.

<sun-appserv-component action="enable" passwordfile="${passwordfile}">
<server host="greg.sun.com"/>
<server host="joe.sun.com"/>
<component file="${assemble}/simpleapp.ear"/>
<component file="${assemble}/simpleservlet.war"/>
<component name="simplebean" />
</sun-appserv-component>
