Deploy Ear to WAS

In this sample we will show how to deploy application 'simple-ear.ear' to the WebSphere Application server during the install phase. We will show how to:

• customize some of the properties and configure embedded web module simple-webapp.war
• do typical WAS configuration by inverting classloaderMode to PARENT_LAST
• configure session invalidation timeout for a specific module
