The document discusses how to deploy Mule ESB applications using the Mule Management Console (MMC). MMC provides a centralized interface to monitor, manage, and deploy Mule applications. To deploy an application, login to MMC and use the Deployments tab to provision applications to target Mule servers. The Deployments tab shows all provisioned apps, their status, and whether they are deployed. Users can deploy, undeploy, redeploy, and delete applications from the Deployments tab. New deployment groups can also be created to specify apps and servers.

Overview
- Mule Management Console (MMC) centralizes management and monitoring functions for all
your Mule ESB Enterprise deployments, whether they are running as standalone instances, as
a cluster, or embedded in application servers.
- MMC is an enterprise management and monitoring tool designed specifically for Mule ESB
instances.
- MMC provides a centralized, convenient, and intuitive web-based interface to monitor,
manage, and administer the run-time aspects of Mule ESB. With MMC, you can save time
and reduce errors by quickly identifying, diagnosing, and appropriately addressing problems
within development, testing, UAT and production environments; all with the same user
experience.

The application may also be deployed to a cluster.
• Undeploy: Deactivates and removes an existing deployed application from the configured
Mule ESB instances. Only available for currently deployed applications The application may
also be undeployed from a cluster.
• Redeploy: Recycles the deployment of an existing application. Available for deployed

Creating a New Deployment Group
• Click the New button to create a new deployment group and specify servers and applications
for that group. The figure below shows the options you have for specifying applications and
servers for a group
• You enter a name for the deployment, plus select the server or servers (or server groups) for
the deployment. Selected servers and server groups appear in the box beneath Servers, and
can be removed by clicking the red X to the right of the server name.
• You can also specify a cluster for the group.
