4.8.3 Deploying applications

To deploy an application, execute the deploy subcommand of the asadmin utility command. To start the application, you must deploy it on a Java EE server (server instance).

Prerequisites

The domain administration server (DAS) is running.
Setup of Application Server is complete.
The relevant applications have been received from the application developers.

Intended users

System engineers

Procedure

To deploy the application to a server instance, run the deploy subcommand of the asadmin utility command.
```
asadmin deploy --target server_instance_name_or_cluster_name 
file_path_of_application
```
- In a configuration where only one Java EE server is deployed, specify the server instance name for the --target option.
- In a cluster configuration where more than one Java EE server is deployed, specify the cluster name for the --target option.
When this command is run, the result is displayed as follows:
```
Application deployed with name application_name.
Command deploy executed successfully.
```
Repeat step 1 for each application that you want to deploy.

Postrequisites
