Description Charles Crouch 2008-06-23 22:01:00 UTC

Example would be deleting a .ear archive, will remove the archive from disk, remove the ear resource from the inventory, but leave the stateless session bean resources (that were contained in the .ear) still in the inventory. These resources turn red since their actual deployment (inside the .ear archive) no longer exists.

The trouble is there is no real association between the ear resource and the SLSB resource to indicate that the SLSB should be removed too.

Comment 1 Joseph Marques 2009-04-28 09:11:55 UTC

this could/would be fixed by implementing the relationship service.

This bug was previously known as http://jira.rhq-project.org/browse/RHQ-618
This bug is related to RHQ-372
This bug incorporates RHQ-323

Comment 3 Jochen Riedlinger 2010-05-27 12:00:17 UTC

This is not only true for a deletion of an EAR, but also for an uninventory of that EAR.

Also not only the SLSBs(EJB-JARs) is still there, but all other embedded elements of that EAR (RAR, WAR, )

We deploy our EARs with names like e.g.:
OurApp-2.2.4.ear (with embedded OurApp-EJB-2.2.4.jar, OurApp-web-2.2.4.war) and want to uninventory them when updating to OurApp-2.2.5.ear


It is too much work not just to uninventory the EARs but also all children.....

I have raised the following https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=670749
before I found this one. If you check the steps to reproduce in 670749 you will see exactly the same test scenario.

Although not a silver bullet, there is some ability for the work in Bug 1093822 to potentially have a positive impact here.
