Server collection

Use this topic to learn how to navigate within the administrative console to the pages where you can view information about the application servers, generic servers, Java message service (JMS) servers, and web servers that are defined for your system.

You can use these respective administrative console pages to view the status of the listed servers. The status indicates whether a server is running, stopped, or encountering problems. You can also use these pages to perform the following actions for the listed servers:

To view the Application servers page, in the administrative console page, click Servers > Server Types > WebSphere application servers . This page lists all of the application servers in the cell.

To view the Generic servers page, in the administrative console, click Servers > Server Types > Generic servers. This page lists all of the generic servers in the cell.

To view the web servers page, in the administrative console, click Servers > Server Types > Web servers. This page lists all of the web servers in your administrative domain. In addition to the previously mentioned actions, you can use this page to generate and propagate a web server plug-in configuration file.

Name

Specifies a logical name for the server. For WebSphere® Application Server, server names must be unique within a node.

Node

Specifies the node on which the server resides.

Host Name

Specifies the IP address, the full domain name system (DNS) host name with a domain name suffix, or the short DNS host name for the server.

Version

Specifies the version of the product on which the server runs.

Cluster Name

Specifies the name of the cluster to which the application server belongs. This field only displays when the Include cluster members in the collection console page preference is selected on the Applications server page.

If you have created clusters, and if the Include cluster members in the collection console page preference is selected, application servers that are cluster members are included in the list of application servers that displays on the Application servers page. These cluster members can be managed in the same manner as any of the other application servers in the list.

If the Include cluster members in the collection console page preference is not selected, application servers that are cluster members are not listed in the list of application servers that can be managed from this page.

Status

Specifies whether the server is started, stopped, partially stopped, or unavailable. If the status is unavailable, the node agent is not running in that node and you must restart the node agent before you can start the server.

Table 1. Server status and meaning. The following table describes the server status.
Started Started The server is running.
Partially stopped Partially stopped The server is in the process of changing from a started state to a stopped state.
Stopped Stopped The server is not running.
Unavailable Unavailable The server status cannot be determined.
