Hi Billy. I have been deploying the ear file everytime. However, Orion has been scanning it to see what has been updated. If it is only the war file ( I have one war file, multiple jars), only the war file is redeployed, the jars are not redeployed. If only one EJB-jar file has been changed, only that jar is redeployed, and not the war file and the not the rest of the jars. Since I am doing the deployments remotely, just sending one file over has been proving easier and faster for me than trying to send the individual files over. The only time that I have had difficulties is when the API's for the EJB's are changed, or EJB's are added or deleted. -Steve -- Stephen Davidson Java Consultant Delphi Consultants, LLC http://www.delphis.com Phone: 214-696-6224 x208
