After you install the product, create unique types of profiles
and augment existing profiles for WebSphere® eXtreme Scale.
About this task
Augmenting profiles for use with WebSphere eXtreme Scale is optional, but is
required in the following usage scenarios:
- To automatically start a catalog service or container in a WebSphere Application Server process. Without augmenting
the server profiles, servers can only be started programmatically
using the ServerFactory API or as separate processes
with the startOgServer script.
- To use Performance Monitoring Infrastructure (PMI) to monitor WebSphere eXtreme Scale metrics.
- To display the version of WebSphere eXtreme Scale in the WebSphere Application Server administrative console.
If you are running WebSphere eXtreme Scale within WebSphere Application Server Version 6.1 , you can use the Profile
Management Tool plug-in or the manageprofiles command
to create and augment profiles.
What to do next
Depending
on which task you choose to complete, launch the First steps console
for assistance with configuring and testing your product environment.
The First steps console is in the following directory:
- wxs_install_root\firststeps\wxs\firststeps.bat
- wxs_install_root/firststeps/wxs/firststeps.sh
You can also create or augment additional profiles by repeating
any of the preceding tasks.
