Comment: I removed the first console screen shot because it will be covered in the Admin Console doc, plus tried to shrink this page a litlte bit as well.

To facilitate the creation of Geronimo-specific deployment plans there is a new portlet now available. The Plan Creator wizard available from the Geronimo Administration Console makes deployment easier by walking you through a sequence of steps to auto-generate the geronimo-web.xml for a given WAR file.

The wizard searches the references declared in the web.xml as well as what is now defined within the code itself via annotations. Depending on the type of application the Plan Creator wizard will present a series of pages requesting specific information to resolve the references and dependencies. The wizard also offers default values which work for most of the configurations.

Depending on the type of application you are deploying, you may be presented with six separate pages to address the application's specific configuration. These pages are (in sequence):

  1. Load WAR
  2. WAR - EnironmentEnvironment
  3. WAR - References
  4. WAR - Security
  5. WAR - Dependencies
  6. Created Plan and Deploy WAR
