<h2>ServerDeploy element</h2>

<h3><b>Description:</b></h3>

<p>The <code>serverdeploy</code> task is used to run a "hot" deployment tool for
vendor-specific J2EE server. The task requires nested elements which define
the attributes of the vendor-specific deployment tool being executed.
Vendor-specific deployment tools elements may enforce rules for which
attributes are required, depending on the tool.
</p>

<h3>Parameters:</h3>
<table border="1" cellpadding="2" cellspacing="0">
  <tr>
    <td valign="top"><b>Attribute</b></td>
    <td valign="top"><b>Description</b></td>
    <td valign="top"><b>Required</b></td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <td valign="top">action</td>
    <td valign="top">This is the action to be performed.  For most cases this
    will be "deploy".  Some tools support additional actions, such as "delete", "list",
    "undeploy", "update"...</td>
    <td>Yes</td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <td valign="top">source</td>
    <td valign="top">A fully qualified path/filename of the component to be deployed.
    This may be an .ear, .jar, .war, or any other type that is supported by the server.
    </td>
    <td>Tool dependant</td>
  </tr>
</table>

<h3>Nested Elements</h3>

<p>The serverdeploy task supports a nested <code>classpath</code> element to set the classpath.</p>

<h3>Vendor-specific nested elements</h3>

<h3>Parameters used for all tools:</h3>
<table border="1" cellpadding="2" cellspacing="0">
  <tr>
    <td valign="top"><b>Attribute</b></td>
    <td valign="top"><b>Description</b></td>
    <td valign="top"><b>Required</b></td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <td valign="top">classpath</td>
    <td valign="top">The classpath to be passed to the JVM running the tool.
    The classpath may also be supplied as a nested element.</td>
    <td>Tool dependant</td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <td valign="top">server</td>
    <td valign="top">The address or URL for the server where the component will be deployed.</td>
    <td>Tool dependant</td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <td valign="top">username</td>
    <td valign="top">The user with privileges to deploy applications to the server.</td>
    <td>Tool dependant</td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <td valign="top">password</td>
    <td valign="top">The password of the user with privileges to deploy applications to the server.</td>
    <td>Tool dependant</td>
  </tr>
</table>

<p>Also supported are nested vendor-specific elements.</p>

<a name="serverdeploy_generic">
<h3>Generic element</h3>
This element is provided for generic Java-based deployment tools.
The generic task accepts (but does not require) nested <code>arg</code>
and <code>jvmarg</code> elements.
A JVM will be spawned with the provided attributes.  It is recommended
that a vendor-specific element be used over the generic one if at all
possible.
<p>The following attributes are supported by the generic element.</p>
<p>
<table border="1" cellpadding="2" cellspacing="0">
  <tr>
    <td valign="top"><b>Attribute</b></td>
    <td valign="top"><b>Description</b></td>
    <td valign="top"><b>Required</b></td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <td valign="top">classname</td>
    <td valign="top">This is the fully qualified classname of the Java based
    deployment tool to execute.</td>
    <td>Yes</td>
  </tr>
</table>
</p>

<h3>Nested Elements</h3>
<p>The generic element supports nested &lt;arg&gt; and &lt;jvmarg&gt; elements.</p>

<h3>Example</h3>

<p>This example shows the use of generic deploy element to deploy a component
using a Java based deploy tool:</p>

<pre>
    &lt;serverdeploy action=&quot;deploy&quot; source=&quot;${lib.dir}/ejb_myApp.ear&quot;&gt;
        &lt;generic classname="com.yamato.j2ee.tools.deploy.DeployTool"
            classpath=&quot;${classpath}&quot;
            username=&quot;${user.name}&quot;
            password=&quot;${user.password}&quot;&gt;
            &lt;arg value="-component=WildStar"/&gt;
            &lt;arg value="-force"/&gt;
            &lt;jvmarg value="-ms64m"/&gt;
            &lt;jvmarg value="-mx128m"/&gt;
        &lt;/generic&gt;
    &lt;/serverdeploy&gt;
</pre>

<a name="serverdeploy_weblogic">
<h3>WebLogic element</h3>
<p>
The WebLogic element contains additional attributes to run the
<code>weblogic.deploy</code> deployment tool.
<p>Valid actions for the tool are <code>deploy</code>, <code>undeploy</code>,
<code>list</code>, <code>update</code>, and <code>delete</code>.
<p>If the action is <code>deploy</code> or <code>update</code>,
the <code>application</code> and <code>source</code> attributes must be set.
If the action is <code>undeploy</code> or <code>delete</code>,
the <code>application</code> attribute must be set.  If the <code>username</code>
attribute is omitted, it defaults to "system".  The <code>password</code> attribute is
required for all actions.

    <td valign="top">This is the name of the application being deployed</td>
    <td>Yes</td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <td valign="top">component</td>
    <td valign="top">This is the component string for deployment targets.
    It is in the form <code>&lt;component&gt;:&lt;target1&gt;,&lt;target2&gt;...</code>
    Where component is the archive name (minus the .jar, .ear, .war
    extension).  Targets are the servers where the components will be deployed</td>
    <td>no</td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <td valign="top">debug</td>
    <td valign="top">If set to true, additional information will be
    printed during the deployment process.</td>
    <td>No</td>

<h3>Examples</h3>

<p>This example shows the use of serverdeploy to deploy a component to a WebLogic server:</p>

<pre>
    &lt;serverdeploy action=&quot;deploy&quot; source=&quot;${lib.dir}/ejb_myApp.ear&quot;&gt;
        &lt;weblogic application=&quot;myapp&quot;

            debug=&quot;true&quot;/&gt;
    &lt;/serverdeploy&gt;
</pre>

<p>This example shows serverdeploy being used to delete a component from a
WebLogic server:</p>

<pre>
    &lt;serverdeploy action=&quot;delete&quot; source=&quot;${lib.dir}/ejb_myApp.jar&quot;/&gt
        &lt;weblogic application=&quot;myapp&quot;

<h3>Nested Elements</h3>
<p>The jonas element supports nested &lt;arg&gt; and &lt;jvmarg&gt; elements.</p>


<h3>Examples</h3>

<p>This example shows the use of serverdeploy to deploy a component to a JOnAS server:</p>

<pre>
    &lt;serverdeploy action=&quot;deploy&quot; source=&quot;${lib.dir}/ejb_myApp.jar&quot;&gt;
        &lt;jonas server=&quot;MyJOnAS&quot; jonasroot="${jonas.root}"&gt;

           &lt;classpath&gt;
               &lt;pathelement path=&quot;${jonas.root}/lib/RMI_jonas.jar&quot;/&gt;
               &lt;pathelement path=&quot;${jonas.root}/config/&quot;/&gt;
           &lt;/classpath&gt;
        &lt;/jonas&gt;
    &lt;/serverdeploy&gt;
</pre>

<p>This example shows serverdeploy being used to list the components from a
JOnAS server and a WebLogic server:</p>

<pre>
    &lt;serverdeploy action=&quot;list&quot;/&gt
        &lt;jonas jonasroot=&quot;${jonas.root}&quot; orb=&quot;JEREMIE&quot;/&gt;
        &lt;weblogic application=&quot;myapp&quot
            server=&quot;t3://myserver:7001&quot;
            classpath=&quot;${weblogic.home}/lib/weblogic.jar&quot;
