D Deploying Customizations

This chapter describes how you can deploy customizations you perform on any file.

After you customize a file, you may need to redeploy the .ear file by following the next steps:

• Section D.1, "Delete Existing Deployment"

• Section D.2, "Redeploy Version with Customizations"

• Section D.3, "Restart Opaserver"

Note:

Please note that these steps cause downtime of application.
