You can administer deployed web services applications using
the administrative console.
Before you begin
Before you can administer a web service
application, you need to deploy your web service application.
About this task
You can use the administrative console to administer Java API for XML-Based Web Services (JAX-WS)
service provider or service client applications or Java API
for XML-based RPC (JAX-RPC) web services.
Procedure
- Administer service providers. You can administer
your service providers using the following ways:
- View service providers
at the cell level using the administrative console. You can
view the details of your service provider, manage the policy sets
for the service, its endpoints and operations, and assign bindings
for the policy set attachment at the cell level.
- View service providers at
the application level using the administrative console. You
can view the details of your service provider, manage the policy sets
for the service, its endpoints and operations, and assign bindings
for the policy set attachment at the application level.
- Manage policy
sets and bindings for service providers. You can view the details
of your service provider, manage the policy sets for the service,
its endpoints and operations, and assign bindings for the policy set
attachment.
- Manage policy sets and bindings for service providers
at the application level using the administrative console.
You can manage policy sets for the provider, its endpoints, and operations,
and assign bindings for the policy set attachment at the application
level.
- View
WSDL document using the administrative console . You can view
the WSDL document for your JAX-WS application.
- Administer service clients. You can administer
your service clients using the following ways:
- View the deployment descriptors..
View the web services server and client deployment descriptors
for a deployed web services application. You can view the bindings
in the deployment descriptors. The deployment descriptors are required
for JAX-RPC web services. You can optionally use the webservices.xml deployment
descriptor to augment or override application metadata specified in
annotations within your JAX-WS web services.
- Configure the scope of a web service
port..(JAX-RPC applications only) When a
web service application is deployed into WebSphere® Application
Server, an instance is created for each application or module. The
instance contains deployment information for the web module or enterprise
bean module, including implementation scope and client bindings information.
There are three levels of scope that you can set: application, session
and request.
- Suppress
the compensation service Not all web servers are
configured to handle SOAP messages containing CoordinationContext
elements. WebSphere Application Server allows
you to configure a custom property for the compensation service which
processes a predefined list of Enterprise Java Beans for which no
CoordinationContext should be sent on web service requests.
