To deploy a web application into an ABL application on a PAS for OpenEdge instance:

  1. In the OpenEdge Command Center console, click the PASOE instances tab.

    The PAS for OpenEdge Instances page appears, listing all the instances associated with the currently configured OpenEdge Command Center agents.

  2. Select the checkbox next to the instance on which you want to deploy the web application. The Applications pane appears at the bottom of the page.
  3. Click Deploy. The Deploy Application dialog box appears.
  4. Select the Web Application option as the application type.
  5. In the Select ABL Application field, type a new ABL application name or select an existing one from the list.
    Note: If you type a new ABL application name, an ABL application with that name will be created and the web application will be deployed into it.
  6. In the Select Application File field, click Select File to browse to the location of the WAR file containing the web application and select the file.
    Note:
    • If you are deploying a WAR file into an ABL application that already contains web applications with the same names as those included in the WAR file, you must undeploy the existing applications first.
    • You can upload a WAR file only if its size is less than or equal to 523,239,424 bytes (499 MB). If you want to upload a larger file, update the system-config.json file by adding the maxFileUploadSize parameter with appropriate value and restart the OpenEdge Command Center server. The maximum value you can set is 3,221,225,472 bytes (3 GB). For more information, see OpenEdge Command Center server configuration.
  7. In the Web Application Name field, type the name of the web application.
    The web application name is automatically detected from the WAR file and is displayed in the Web Application Name field, by default. You can change the application name, if needed.
  8. Based on the status of the PAS for OpenEdge instance and deployment of the Apache Tomcat Manager application, the dialog box displays either the Deploy or Deploy & Restart button. The following table summarizes different scenarios:
    If Then
    Status of PAS for OpenEdge instance Status of Apache Tomcat Manager Application Deploy Application dialog box displays Required action
    Running Deployed The Enter Apache Tomcat Manager credentials section and the Deploy button Enter the credentials and click Deploy.
    Running Not deployed The Deploy & Restart button Click Deploy & Restart.
    Stopped NA The Deploy button Click Deploy.
    Note: If you enter incorrect credentials, the application deployment becomes a normal deployment, requiring the PAS for OpenEdge instance to restart.
    A popup window appears, displaying the notification message that the deploy operation is successfully submitted. You can click the bell icon to refresh and view the deployment status. After the successful deployment, the web application appears in the Web Application section.
