Function

The remove-library subcommand of asadmin removes one or more library JAR files from Java EE Server. You can specify whether the libraries are removed from the Common class loader directory, the Java optional package directory, or the application-specific class loader directory. This subcommand is supported in remote mode only.

The library archive file is removed from the DAS. For common and extension libraries, you must restart the DAS so the library removals are picked up by the server runtime. To remove the libraries from other server instances, synchronize the instances with the DAS by restarting them.
