About the Server SDK

You can create extensions that use the Server SDK to extend the functionality of your server. Extension bundles are installed from a .zip archive or a file system directory. You can use the manage-extension tool to install or update any extension that is packaged using the extension bundle format. It opens and loads the extension bundle, confirms the correct extension to install, stops the server if necessary, copies the bundle to the server install root, and then restarts the server.

The manage-extension tool can only be used with Java extensions packaged using the extension bundle format. Groovy extensions do not use the extension bundle format. For more information, see the "Building and Deploying Java-Based Extensions" section of the Server SDK documentation, which describes the extension bundle format and how to build an extension.
