6.6.1.3.4: Updating applications with the Web console

During this task, you will install updated application files for an existing application, modify the configuration of an existing application, or both.

It is recommended that you review article 6.5.1 of the InfoCenter, regarding dynamic reloading options.

Updating bindings

Use the installation sub-tasks to modify the bindings of an already installed application. To do so:

  1. Locate the application in the tree on the left side of the console.
  2. Click it to display its properties.
  3. Click one of the links listed under Modify Application Bindings to launch a panel or wizard for modifying the type of bindings that you chose.
Making bigger changes

If you need to update the contents of the .ear, .jar, or .war files comprising the application or module, or make any other configuration changes not available in the administrative console:

  1. Export the application to a location other than its current location under the WebSphere product directory structure, because you are going to manually delete those directories associated with the installed application.

    To export the application, uninstall its configuration settings, and delete the installed application directories, follow the instructions for removing an application.

  2. Modify the application .ear, .jar, or .war files if you have not done so already.
  3. Install the application or module again, using the updated files.
