6.6.3.1.2: Starting and stopping application servers with the Java administrative console
- Make sure the administrative server is running.
- Open the Java administrative console.
- From the console menu bar, click View -> Topology.
- In the topology tree, expand the WebSphere Administrative Domain
tree node to display a list of host names.
- Expand the host name corresponding to the machine containing the application
server that you want to start.
- Click the application server to display its properties on the right side of the console.
If its current state is Stopped, right-click the
application server. On the resulting menu, click Start.
If the administrative console appears to stop,
there may be a problem with data access that the administrative console
cannot properly return back to you.
This happens when the archive file that contains database exception classes
has not been added to the classpath in adminclient.bat/.sh.
If you experience this behavior,
make sure the archive file has been added to the classpath setting.
(For example, the name of the file that contains DB2 exception classes
is db2java.zip.)
- After an information dialog is displayed, stating that the application server is running,
click OK on the dialog.
After the application server starts, it is marked in the configuration database
that it should be running. If it stops, or if you reboot the machine,
the administrative server will automatically restart it. Even if the
administrative server fails, the application server will continue to
run.
- Test the application server. Start the Web server if it is not running.
Then, open a browser and go to:
http://localhost/servlet/snoop
Snoop is a standard sample servlet installed by default.
In the browser, you should see information on /servlet/snoop, including
Init Parameters and Request information.
To stop the application server, right-click it to display a menu. From the menu,
select Stop.
