+# Enable Remote Deployment and Debugging
+
+
+## Prepare Platform ##
+
+Don't do this on a public environment without modifying the credentials! (better: don't do it at all)
+
+
+### Install manager-tools:
+
+	apt-get install tomcat7-admin
+
+### Create User for remote deployment
+
+Edit `/etc/tomcat7/tomcat-users.xml`
+
+Insert:
+
+	 <role rolename="admin-gui" />
+	 <role rolename="admin-script" />
+	 <role rolename="manager-gui" />
+	 <role rolename="manager-script" />
+	 <user username="tom" password="cat" roles="manager-gui,admin-gui,manager-script,admin-script" />
+
+### Enable JPDA remote Debugging
+
+Edit `/etc/default/tomcat7`
+
+Uncomment:
+
+	JAVA_OPTS="${JAVA_OPTS} -Xdebug -Xrunjdwp:transport=dt_socket,address=8000,server=y,suspend=n"
+
+Remote debugging will be available at port 8000. Don't to forget to set the port forwarding inside VirtualBox accordingly!
+
+
+## Prepare Maven Tomcat 7 deployment 
+
+### Add deployment credential to Maven settings
+
+To avoid storing the credentials inside the version-controlled `pom.xml`, define a server in the ´.m2/settings.xml`: 
+
+    <server>
+      <id>mico-deployment</id>
+      <username>tom</username>
+      <password>cat</password>
+    </server>
+
+
+### Modify pom.xml
+
+
+Add something like
+
+	<plugin>
+	    <groupId>org.apache.tomcat.maven</groupId>
+	    <artifactId>tomcat7-maven-plugin</artifactId>
+	    <configuration>
+	        <url>http://mico-platform:8080/manager/text</url>
+	        <server>mico-deployment</server>
+	        <update>true</update>
+	    </configuration>
+	</plugin> 
+
+See https://tomcat.apache.org/maven-plugin-trunk/tomcat7-maven-plugin/deploy-mojo.html for the available fields.
+
+
+
+
+## Debug
+
+

+
+ - add a new *Remote* configuration.
+  - Host: **mico-platform**
+  - Port: **8000**
