You can cancel validation of an edition and return the
application edition to inactive state.
Before you begin
You must have an application installed and in the validate
state.
About this task
By canceling an application in validation mode, the application
returns to the inactive state. The deployment target for the edition
is reset to its original deployment target. When you cancel an application
in validation mode, the validation target is deleted.
Procedure
- Complete the following steps to cancel
an application in validation mode:
- In the administrative console, click .
- Select the application that is in the validate state
and click Cancel Validation.
- View the cancel validation status page to view each
step of canceling the validation. During the validation
cancellation, the following actions occur:
- The application is set to the inactive state.
- The validation cleanup process is performed
- The validation target is deleted. If the validation target is
a dynamic cluster, you can prevent it from being deleted by setting
the saveClonedCluster custom property on dynamic cluster. See Application edition manager custom properties
for more information.
The edition control center shows that edition is now in the
inactive state, and the manage editions page shows that the deployment
target for the edition is restored to its original deployment target.
The dynamic cluster page shows that the validation dynamic cluster
no longer exists, and the servers page shows the cloned servers no
longer exist.
Remember: The validation
deployment target is deleted unless other applications are still deployed
on the validation deployment target.
- Verify that the cancelation of validation occurred correctly.
