The default Geronimo configuration includes both the Jetty and Tomcat
web containers predeployed and started by default.
Therefore, it would follow (when dealing with a web application that is
not dependent upon any specific web container) that the web app would
either:
1) upon a single deployment be capable of running in either a single,
all, or any combination of containers. If this is the case then I
expect that the container would somehow be specified when starting the
application or the application would be started concurrently on all
active containers (hence a runtime choice of container).
2) require the specification of a container(s) in the deploy command.
The web app could then be deployed multiple times (once to each web
container). The individually deployed applications could then be
started independently on each container.
However, it appears that there is no mechanism to reference a specific
container from either the deploy command or the start command.
How is the user supposed to interpret this? What behavior should the
user expect when deploying and starting web applications that have no
need for a container specific plan and hence include no geronimo
deployment plan? To which container(s) are they deployed? Is the
choice of the container a deployment decision (deploy command) or a
run-time decision (start/stop command)?
Thanks,
Joe
