          Describe what a deployment plan does<\/h2><\/span>\n

          J2EE Deployment Plan<\/h3><\/span>\n

          * An XML file associated with an application
          \n* Resides outside an an application archive
          \n* Finds and replaces values in the J2EE deployment descriptors
          \n* Sets additional configurable properties such as tuning parameters
          \n* Allow deploying same archive to different environments<\/p>\n

          \"\"<\/a><\/h6><\/span>\n
          \"\"<\/a><\/h6><\/span>\n

          Tools to Create a Deployment Plan<\/h3><\/span>\n

          * Development tools
          \n– JDev
          \n– Eclipse
          \n* weblogic.PlanGenerator
          \n* Admin console<\/p>\n

          Recommended Directory Structure for Production Deployment<\/h3><\/span>\n

          * Recommended directory structure:
          \nappReleases
          \n|-appA
          \n|-|-app
          \n|-|-plan
          \n|-|-AppFileOverrides<\/p>\n

          \"\"<\/a><\/h6><\/span>\n

          * Need to specify config-root<\/em> within the plan<\/p>\n

          Create a deployment plan with weblogic.PlanGenerator<\/h2><\/span>\n

          * Syntax:<\/p>\n

          \r\njava weblogic.PlanGenerator [options] [application]\r\n<\/pre>\n
          * Options
          \n-debug
          \n-plan plan_file
          \n-useplan plan_file
          \n-root root_directory
          \n-all
          \n-configurables
          \n-dependencies
          \n-declarations
          \n-dynamics
          \n-none
          \n* Example<\/p>\n
          \r\njava weblogic.PlanGenerator -all .\/appA.war\r\n<\/pre>\n
          \"\"<\/a><\/h6><\/span>\n
          * See this post<\/a> for more examples<\/p>\n
          Create a deployment plan via the admin console<\/h2><\/span>\n
          * If following recommended directory structure for deployment, plan.xml<\/em> is generated in the plan<\/em> directory once application is deployed.
          \n* Otherwise, make a configuration change to the deployed application and save it when prompted:<\/p>\n

          \"\"<\/a><\/h6><\/span>\n
          \"\"<\/a><\/h6><\/span>\n
          Use a deployment plan with an application<\/h2><\/span>\n
          For Example: update context-param<\/h3><\/span>\n
          * See this post<\/a>. Briefly:
          \n– Define a variable (e.g. wsdlUrl<\/em>) with the new<\/em> value<\/p>\n
          \r\n  helloworld.ear<\/application-name>  \r\n    \r\n    \r\n        \r\n        wsdlUrl<\/name>  \r\n        http:\/\/prod_svr:7101\/ws_helloworld\/HelloWorldServicePort?WSDL<\/value>  \r\n     <\/variable>  \r\n  <\/variable-definition>  \r\n<\/pre>\n
          – Replace web.xml with the new value<\/p>\n
          \r\n      \r\n      web-app<\/root-element>  \r\n      WEB-INF\/web.xml<\/uri>  \r\n  \r\n        \r\n         \r\n         wsdlUrl<\/name>   \r\n         \/web-app\/context-param\/[param-name=\"wsdlUrl\"]\/param-value<\/xpath>   \r\n         replace<\/operation>   \r\n       <\/variable-assignment>  \r\n    <\/module-descriptor>  \r\n  <\/module-override>  \r\n<\/pre>\n
          * Deploy with the new plan:<\/p>\n
          \"\"<\/a><\/h6><\/span>\n
          \"\"<\/a><\/h6><\/span>\n
          Deploy with production redeployment (versioned applications)<\/h2><\/span>\n
          Overview<\/h3><\/span>\n
          * Supports only HTTP clients and RMI clients
          \n* Existing clients continue to use older version<\/em> of app
          \n* New clients are directed to new version<\/em> of app
          \n* Older version is retired when all existing clients complete their work<\/p>\n
          Configure<\/h3><\/span>\n
          * Specify a unique version in
          \n– META-INF\/MANIFEST.MF<\/em> (preferred)<\/p>\n
          \r\nManifest-Version: 1.0\r\nCreated-By: 1.5.0_04-b01 (Sun Microsystems Inc.)\r\nWeblogic-Application-Version: v1\r\n<\/pre>\n
          – or Admin Console<\/p>\n
          Distributing vs Redeploying<\/h3><\/span>\n
          * Distributing: makes a new version of app available for testing before being released for general consumption
          \n* Redeploying: places the new version immediately into use<\/p>\n
          Distribute an App<\/h3><\/span>\n
          * Use weblogic.Deployer<\/em> -distribute command to distribute an app<\/p>\n
          \r\njava weblogic.Deployer -adminurl http:\/\/localhost:7011 -user system\r\n-password weblogic -distribute -name retirement\r\n-source \/myDeployments\/myApplication\/retirement\r\n-appversion 2.0\r\n<\/pre>\n
          * Start app in Administration mode<\/p>\n
          \r\n<\/pre>\n
          * Test the app using admin channel
          \n* When ready, start the app<\/p>\n
          \r\njava weblogic.Deployer -adminurl http:\/\/localhost:7011 -user system\r\n-password weblogic -start -adminmode -name retirement\r\n-source \/myDeployments\/myApplication\/retirement\r\n-appversion 2.0\r\n<\/pre>\n
          * Set the retirement timeout for the older version<\/p>\n
          \r\njava weblogic.Deployer -adminurl http:\/\/localhost:7011 -user system\r\n-password weblogic -start -name retirement\r\n-appversion 2.0 -retiretimeout 300\r\n<\/pre>\n
          Define the staging modes (stage, nostage, external stage)<\/h2><\/span>\n
          * stage: files are copies to the pre-configured stating staging directory for preparation and activation
          \n* nostage: files are deployed from a static location
          \n* external stage: files are copied by a user or a third party tool (e.g. JDev) before deployment<\/p>\n
