Rebuild and Redeploy the EAM Sample Solution

If you modify the sample, you must rebuild it for your modifications to take effect.

The EAM Sample Solution bundle includes an Ant build file that rebuilds the sample WAR file, eam-sample.war.

Prerequisites

  • Verify that you have set up and started the EAM Sample Solution in an application server.

  • Verify that you have Apache Ant in your development environment. For information about how to install and configure Ant, see http://ant.apache.org/.

Procedure

  1. Go to the root folder of your ESX Agent Manager SDK development environment.
    For example, eam_work_folder
  2. Rebuild the EAM Sample Solution WAR file by running the ant command.
  3. Copy the eam-sample.war file from the ESX Agent Manager SDK folder to a work directory.
  4. Unzip the eam-sample.war file.
  5. Update the eamri.properties file.
  6. Deploy the updated EAM Sample solution to your Web application server.
