From JBoss EAP  8.0 onward, the JBoss EAP server can be updated in either online or offline mode. These modes are supported by all the update methods.

  • Online update: You can update JBoss EAP directly from an online repository. You must have access to the Red Hat repositories or their mirrors to use this mode. This option always updates to the latest available JBoss EAP  8.0 update.
  • Offline update: You can update JBoss EAP from a local file-system. Use the offline update mode if you do not have online access to the Red Hat repositories or their mirrors. You will need to download the latest update and distribute it to your systems.
