After you install and configure Application Engine, you must deploy your client application, Workplace, on your application server. You might be required to re-create the WAR or WAR and EAR files before you deploy.
If you need to edit the web.xml file as part of deployment, for example if you are using single sign-on (SSO), make these changes from the administrative server node only. In addition, to include these changes you must re-create the WAR or EAR file before deploying the application.
Most application server cluster configurations deploy an application to managed servers by copying the application files from the administrative node to the managed server, and only changes made on the administrative node are deployed to the configuration.
Server | Action |
---|---|
WebSphere Application Server | For WebSphere make sure you select the cluster and/or managed nodes that will be running the application when mapping modules to servers (the admin node is usually the default, so it is typical to change this). Click apply so that the application shows as deployed to the proper nodes instead of the default single node. UTF-8 encoding parameters should be set on every node. |
Oracle WebLogic Server | For Oracle WebLogic Server make sure the targets for the application include the Oracle WebLogic Server cluster and/or managed nodes that will be running the application. |
When installing in farm of independent application server instances, the steps shown for deploying Application Engine on the application server must be performed on every node.
