WebSphere Enterprise Service Bus for z/OS, Version 6.2.0 Operating Systems: z/OS


Starting and stopping the administrative console

To access the administrative console, you must start it and then log in. After you finish working in the console, save your work and log out.

Before you begin

Ensure you have started the application server required by the administrative console.

About this task

To start the console, log in, and then log out, use the following procedure.
Procedure
  1. Start the administrative console:
    1. Enable cookies in the Web browser that you plan to use to access the administrative console.
    2. Optional: Enable JavaScript™. JavaScript enablement is recommended so that all the features of the administrative console are available to you.
    3. In your cookie-enabled Web browser, type the following:

      http://your_fully_qualified_server_name:portNumber/ibm/console

      where your_fully_qualified_server_name specifies the fully qualified host name for the system that contains the administrative server and portNumber is the administrative console port number.

      If security is enabled, your request is redirected to https://your_fully_qualified_server_name:secure_portNumber/ibm/console, where your_fully_qualified_server_name is the fully qualified host name for the system that contains the administrative server and secure_portNumber is the administrative console secure port number.

      Note: The default port number for an unsecure administrative console is port 9060, and for a secure administrative console the default port number is 9043. Each new administrative console that you deploy during profile creation is assigned a new unsecure port number and, if you enable security during profile creation, a new secure port number.
    4. Check the System.Out.log file of the server that runs the console application to verify that the console application has started successfully. A successful start produces the message WSVR0221I: Application started: isclite.
    The administrative console loads in the browser, displaying a login page.
  2. Log into the console:
    1. In the User ID field, enter your user name or user ID. The user ID lasts only for the duration of the session for which it is used to log in.
      Note: If you enter an ID that is already in use (and in session) you are prompted to do one of the following:
      • Log out the other user with the same user ID. You can recover changes made during the other user's session.
      • Return to the login page and enter a different user ID.

      Any changes made to server configurations are saved to the user ID. Server configurations are also saved to the user ID if a session times out.

    2. If security is enabled for the console, you must also enter a password in the Password field.
    3. Click OK.

      The administrative console now displays the Welcome page.

  3. Log off the console:
    • To save the work you have done during this session, click System administration > Save changes to master repository > Save, and then click Logout to exit the console.
    • To exit the console without saving your changes to the repository, click Logout.

    If you close the browser before saving your work, you can recover any unsaved changes the next time that you log in with the same user ID.
