Undeploy all applications from Glassfish

Question

I need a way to undeploy all my applications from Glassfish. Normally, I would use asadmin undeploy --target=[target] [appname]" for each application. My problem is that I don't know the name of all applications that are present on the server. Is there a command that would allow me to just undeploy everything? Thanks.

Answer 1

While there isn't an 'undeploy everything' command, there is a list-applications command. This page describes list-applications and some other commands that will help you achieve your goal.

Answer 2

You can create a bash script like this one:

#!/bin/bash

ASADMIN=(path to Glassfish asadmin executable)

function undeploy_all {
    for p in $*; do
        echo "Undeploying $p..."
        $ASADMIN undeploy $p
    done;
}

apps=`$ASADMIN list-applications -t | awk '{print $1;}'`

undeploy_all $apps

When you run it, it will undeploy all deployed applications automatically. It needs awk. Make sure to configure the ASADMIN variable with the path to asadmin.
