Managing Server SDK extensions
The server provides support for any custom extensions that you create using the Server SDK. This chapter summarizes the various features and extensions that can be developed using the Server SDK.
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.
