Kevan Miller commented on GERONIMO-4795:
----------------------------------------

That may be how you *think* the server should be used. Although I think a "disposable" server model for using Geronimo is an excellent technique, it's not the only technique. I certainly talk with users who have decided not to manage their Geronimo environment in this way... So, I'm not so quick to dismiss this basic scenario... 

That said, I think I agree that we should *not* support this undeploy behavior... 

Seems like there are 3 potential ways to end up in the state described by Ashish:

1) deploy an app/plugin to the default server, then copy var/* to a new server instance
2) deploy a plugin to any server (using the default repository), then deploy the plugin only using a deployment plan (I'm only guessing that this might work).
3) deploy an app/plugin, then manually copy the config.xml changes into the other server's config.xml

I don't think these "deploy" techniques imply that we'll automatically "undeploy" the apps. User management was required, when deploying the apps to the multiple servers. User Management will be required, when undeploying. 

Personally, I think the best technique for handling this scenario is with server specific repositories on each server instance. If you want to run the same app on all server instances, you should explicitly deploy/undeploy to each server instance.

> 1)  Setup another geronimo instance out of the same installation directory.
> 2) Deploy an applicaton to one instance. This will result in entry being created in config.xml for both the instances
> 3) Undeploy the application. This results in entry being removed from config.xml of one instance and other instance 
> still has entry of the application in config.xml.
