             Operating Systems: AIX, HP-UX, Linux, Solaris, Windows, z/OS


Configuring the runtime topology

With the runtime topology page, you can view and change your WebSphere Extended Deployment environment. You can adjust configuration options to keep informed of the activities occurring in the environment, and to make changes based on the information yielded in the topology view and dynamic charting.

You can select from node group, application and service policy perspectives. These perspectives determine which topology and charts display in the page. Within the perspectives, you can choose to view all the information, or information for a specific instance.

[Version 6.0.1 and later] See Administrative roles and privileges for runtime topology.

Left-clicking an element in the topology opens a menu with options from which you can choose. These options range from configuring or viewing server logs and charting selected items, to stopping your server.

The runtime topology depicts a momentary state of an Extended Deployment environment. Hovering over an underlined element provides information about that element. This information refreshes on a configurable interval to help with your decision making. You can view information such as:
You can also configure the visualization data service to provide log files of the data gathered by the runtime topology. The runtime topology displays where the autonomic controllers are running such as ARFM, placement, and health. It also shows where the grid scheduler is running, if applicable.
Restriction: The dWLM is a member of the default node group, but statistics are not available for it.
