Managed vs Unmanaged deployments

[markboletti]

Hi JBoss devs!

I've run my first test on the WildFly console and I've find out that the deployments via Web console allows Managed and Unmanaged deployments. What's the difference between them ?

Thanks

Mark

Managed deployments are uploaded to the server. In case of unmanaged deployments there is only a 'link' to the original file.

But I would handle that with care in production.

See the helptext of the cli command deploy

--unmanaged if this argument is not specified, the deployment content

                    will be copied (i.e. uploaded) to the server's deployment

                    repository before it is deployed. If the argument is

                    present, the deployment content will remain at and be

                    deployed directly from its original location specified with

                    the file_path.

                    NOTE: exploded deployments are supported only as unmanaged.

Hi Wolf-Dieter Fink ,

    Just for curious, If I have deployed with unmanaged argument. Can I able to check the deployed application ? If yes, How long I could check the deployed application ? ( Is there any constraints ?)

Regards,

Arun Raj.

I don't understand what you are asking for, could you elaborate on this?

I would like to ask about the update process for unmanaged deployments. If we explode the new archive in the path indicated for the unmanaged deployment and, then, restart de Server Group, it would automatically gets the new version? Or we need to remove the old deployment and make a new one?

I don't understand your question

If you have a server-group, that mean you use the domain mode, here you don't have unmanaged deployments or exploded deployment.

Also as this is an old thread you should open a new discussion as your question is not related to the original issue.
