Updating portlets common across clusters

This section describes how to update a portlet common across clusters

This section describes using Deployment Manager or XMLAccess to update a portlet common across clusters.

If the portlet was predeployed as a standard EAR, then only the EAR needs to be updated through Deployment Manager and the results synchronized to every cluster to which this application is mapped. You can use either the AdminApp install command with the update option within the wsadmin scripting client to update an enterprise application, or use the update option after selecting the enterprise application to update under the Applications > Enterprise Applications section of the Deployment Manager’s Administration Console.

If a portlet's configuration is being updated, for instance with new access control definitions or configuration parameter values, then the XMLAccess application must be used to update every portal cluster's configuration with this same information. In this case you would use an updated <web-app> element.
