Not if it is in a 'hot deploy' directory is my understanding (this has been discussed here before but I don't recall the exact details). > Is this a bug or a feature?

They drop and restart each server in the cluster. Normally production systems do not use 'hot deploy' because of the performance overhead involved in 'watching' a hot deploy directory. > What about CFMXj2ee running on JRun, webSphere, ant the like? See above for clusters - some of those systems support session replication / failover. That means zero downtime for this sort of upgrade. > What about Pure Java/JSP systems on these app servers?
