Start Websphere Application Server but not loading any application

Is there any way that we can start Websphere Application Server but not loading any applications installed on it?

Environment: websphere 7.0

I didn't find a command line tool method for doing this, but you can edit the deployment.xml files underneath each WAR/EAR file that you want to stop from auto-starting when Websphere starts up.

These deployment.xml files are located typically here:

/opt/IBM/WebSphere/AppServer/profiles/<my profile>/config/cells/<my cell>/applications/<my .ear>/deployments/<my app>/deployment.xml

Within this file is this XML snippet:

<targetMappings xmi:id="DeploymentTargetMapping_1499739616851" enable="true" target="ServerTarget_1499739616851"/>

Change the enable=true to enable=false for every EAR/WAR that you don't want to auto-start. Once done start WAS as you'd normally do so.

If you mean not starting installed applications, this is controlled through Administrative Console in Enterprise Applications > your_app > Target specific application status. There you can enable or disable auto start.
