6.6.0.3a: Starting and stopping the Web administrative console
The Web console is available on machines containing
WebSphere administrative servers. You can use a Web browser to
access it remotely from machines that do not contain an
administrative server.
To start the Web administrative console:
- Ensure that the Web server is running on the machine containing the console.
- Ensure the default application server is also running.
- In a Web browser, type:
http://your.server.name/admin
where your.server.name is localhost if the Web console is on the local
machine. On Windows 2000, it has been found that localhost is not always recognized. In
such a case, use the actual host name.
If the console is on a remote machine, enter the short or fully qualified
host name for the machine containing the administrative server.
- From the HTML page displayed, select XML Web Administration Tool.
- Wait for the console to load into the browser.
To stop the console, simply close the browser.
Make sure you submitted
your changes and either exported them to XML or committed them. Otherwise,
they will be lost when you close the browser. See 6.6.0.3 for more
information.
