The following procedure describes how to run a Tomcat component in standalone mode. In this mode, Silver Fabric engines run individual self-contained servers that do not communicate with each other. On activation, the engine deploys archives contained in the component to the server.
Procedure
Enter your Silver Fabric host and port in your browser and log in to the Silver Fabric Administration tool.
Go to
Stacks > Components.
Select
Create New J2EE Component from the
Global Actions list.
If prompted, select the
Tomcat Enabler and desired
Enabler Version from the available enablers.
Enter a component name in the
Name field and an optional description in the
Description field.
Click
Next
The
Configure Component Features page is displayed.
HTTP Support, Archive Management Support, and Application Logging Support are added to the feature list by default. Make sure that the Clustering Support option is not selected. You can further customize component features as needed by selecting the feature and clicking
Edit. When finished, click
Next.
The
Configure Component Options screen is displayed.
Click
Next until you reach the
Upload, remove, or reorder archive files page.
Click
Add and upload the archives (WAR file only) that you want to deploy and run on the Tomcat server.
Configure the options on the remaining screens as needed. Additional options are also configurable through context variables.
Click
Finish.
Go to
Stacks > Components.
Select
Publish Component from the corresponding Actions list of the component you created.
Create a stack and add the component to the stack as described in the
Silver Fabric Cloud Administration Guide. Start the stack when required.
