Automatic regeneation of plugin-cfg.xml

The Web server plug-in configuration service by default regenerates the
plugin-cfg.xml file automatically. You can check the setting from WAS Admin console



When selected, the Web server plug-in configuration service automatically generates the plug-in configuration file whenever the Web server environment changes. For example, the plug-in configuration file is regenerated whenever one of the following activities occurs:


  • A new application is deployed on an associated application server.

  • The Web server definition is saved.

  • An application is removed from an associated application server.

  • A new virtual host is defined.


Whenever a virtual host definition is updated, the plug-in configuration file
is automatically regenerated for all of the Web servers.

In my local environment i tried installing a new web application and after installation was completed i checked the plugin-cfg.xml file and it had a entry for newly installed application. Also i could see this in my DMGR's SystemOut.log file
