7 Deploying Applications
7-6 Administration Guide
Deployment Order
Within components of the same type, such as EJBs, you can specify the order in which
they are to be deployed at server startup. The integer that you indicate in the
Deployment Order field when deploying the component indicates the priority in
relation to other components of the same type, such as the order of deployment among
EJBs. Components that have deployment order 0 are deployed first among components
of that type.
However, WebLogic Server uses an ordering among types that is not affected by this
user-defined ordering among components of the same type. When WebLogic Server
starts, the following class-level order is used in deployment:
1. JDBC Connection Pools
2. JDBC Multi Pools
3. JDCB Data Sources
4. JDBC Tx Data Sources
5. JMS Connection Factories
6. JMS Servers
7. Connector Components
8. EJB Components
9. Web App Components
