Mark, Thanks. I have checked the last modified time of the META-INF/war-tracker file and the war file. I see both are same. And still tomcat re-deploying the war file.
May be the time comparison failing?

When Tomcat unpacks a WAR file it adds a file called: META-INF/war-tracker in the expanded directory. The last modified time of this file is set to be the same as the WAR file. When Tomcat (re-)starts, if those timestamps are found to be different, Tomcat assumes the WAR was updated while Tomcat was shut down and redeploys the WAR. You need to check those timestamps and investigate what, if anything, might be modifying them.
