Description tomzi 2009-03-18 15:14:11 UTC
Please add functionality to 

.) See which projects would be deployed when the server (glassfish, tomcat...) starts.
.) Delete/add one or several projects to the server although it has not been started yet.

Currently the server must be started in order to deploy other projects.

Often it takes up to 2-4 minutes or more when the server would start with several projects deployed. Especially during
bugfixing and also in deveopment we would need to re/un/deploy  different war files depending which module must be
enhanced or bugixed. Thus it would help a lot and save time to be able to add/delete/view projects in the server no
matter if it is started yet or not. Thus there needs to be an enhancement to do this while the server is not started.

I don't see how the enhancement will ease your pain (slow startup time).

Can you spend a couple minutes adding details to this report to help make it clearer?

Well at then moment you have to start the server before you know, which projects are deployed or to deploy projects.

.) It would save a lot of time to see which projects are registered with the server, BEFORE I start it.
.) I also would to add/delete projects from the server, BEFORE I start it.

In that sense, it should NOT matter if the server is started or not, to add/delete/view projects to/from the server.
