You can update the definition and deployment information for a deployed SOAP Web service at any time.
Caution: You can freely update the definition and deployment information for a deployed SOAP Web service during development. However, once you deploy and enable a SOAP Web service for client access under production conditions, avoid making any changes to this information, as client implementations depend on its stability.
After production deployment, to make the same SOAP Web service available using different information (for example, to add a new operation or use a different SOAP Message Style), deploy a new SOAP Web service with the new information, using a different SOAP Web service name in the same WSA context. You can also deploy the SOAP Web service to a different WSA context.
