In WL 6.0 (plugin for eclipse juno) and earlier there was a server utility called 'Package Server' that was in the context menu for a server in the Servers view. This 'Utilities' selection has disappeared in the Worklight 6.1 version. Is there another way to Package a WL server when using the eclipse plugin? I understand there is a cmd-line "server" call you can make. But, I don't see this command when using the Eclipse plugin. Thanks.

Honestly, I have never heard of this option... what exactly is it packaging for you? The only artifacts you need to take from Worklight Studio (commercial edition) to your production server that is running Worklight Server, is the .war, .wlapp and .adapter files - all three available in the bin\ folder of the Worklight project.

Hi Idan, The 'Package server' utility was a convenience function that would compress a Liberty profile runtime environment. It would package the server and all the applications that are embedded in the server. So, it was a nice development utility for taking a snapshot of a running Liberty profile server with Worklight and associated adapters. I was able to unzip on a different machine and restart the server with minimal configuration. This utility does still exist for a Liberty dev. environment, but no longer exists if you create that environ. with the Worklight 6.1 plugin.

All, thanks for the responses. I found a cmd-line workaround for this, for now.
cd to
EclipseJuno\plugins\com.worklight.studio.plugin.<61 build>\liberty\wlp\binset WLP_USER_DIR= "
Eclipse Workspace\WorklightServerConfig"Then, run: "server package worklight --include=all --archive=
Key:
EclipseJuno: Directory where Eclipse Juno is installed
Eclipse Workspace: Eclipse workspace that contains a default worklight server instance
