This section describes how to configure System Monitor and Failed Event
Manager to use WebSphere Application Server or WebSphere Application Server
Express. For instructions on using Tomcat instead of WebSphere
Application Server or WebSphere Application Server Express Plus, see
"Configuring Tomcat to use System Monitor and Failed Event
Manager."
Before proceeding, ensure that you have installed the following
prerequisites:
- WebSphere Application Server or WebSphere Application Server Express
versions 5.0.2 or 5.1. (You can install WebSphere
Application Server Express v5.1 from the WebSphere Business Integration
Server Express or Express Plus Launchpad.)
- If you are using WebSphere Application Server Express 5.0.2
or 5.1 and want to use a Web server, that you have installed a Web
server such as IBM HTTP Server, available for free from the IBM Web site, and
the Web server plug-in for WebSphere Application Server Express. See
the WebSphere Application Server Express documentation for more
information.
After you have met these prerequisites, proceed to Configuring System Monitor and Failed Event Manager to use a Web server.
A script called CWDashboard.bat, located in the directory
ProductDir\bin (where ProductDir
represents the directory C:\IBM\WebSphereServer by default)
is supplied with WebSphere Business Integration Server Express and Express
Plus. This script configures System Monitor and Failed Event Manager to
use a Web server. Perform the following steps:
- Run CWDashboard.bat with the following parameters:
- Installation path for WebSphere Application Server or WebSphere
Application Server Express, for example, C:\Program
Files\IBM\WebSphere\Express502\AppServer
- Fully qualified host name of the machine on which you are installing, for
example, hostname.ibm.com
- WebSphere Business Integration Server Express or Express Plus installation
directory, for example, C:\IBM\WebSphereServer
- If the installed WebSphere Business Integration Server Express or Express
Plus system uses DB2, provide the path to the DB2 installation's
java directory, for example, C:\Program
Files\IBM\SQLLIB\java. If the installed WebSphere Business
Integration Server Express or Express Plus system uses another database, use
the value null for this parameter.
- y (for HTTP server yes)
For example:
C:\IBM\WebSphereServer\bin\CWDashboard.bat
"C:\Program Files\IBM\WebSphere\Express502\AppServer"
hostname.ibm.com "C:\IBM\WebSphereServer"
"C:\Program Files\IBM\SQLLIB\java" y.
- From the WebSphere Administrator's Console, expand
Environment in the left navigation pane, select the Update Web
Server Plugin link, and select OK.
- If the ICSMonitor Application Server is started, stop it from the command
line:
C:\Program Files\IBM\WebSphere\Express502\AppServer\bin\ /
stopServer.bat ICSMonitor
- Start the ICSMonitor Application Server from the command line:
C:\Program Files\IBM\WebSphere\Express502\AppServer\bin\ /
startServer.bat ICSMonitor
- To access System Monitor, type the URL:
http://hostname/ICSMonitor
where hostname is the name of the computer on which WebSphere
Application Server is installed.
- To access Failed Event Manager, type the URL:
http://hostname/FailedEvents
where hostname is the name of the computer on which WebSphere
Application Server is installed.
If you want to use a different port number and you do not currently have a
Web server installed, follow the procedure in the section Configuring System Monitor and Failed Event Manager to use a different port number.
To configure System Monitor and Failed Event Manager to use a different
port number, do the following:
- Run ProductDir\bin\CWDashboard.bat with the
following parameters:
- Installation path for WebSphere Application Server Express or WebSphere
Application Server
- Fully qualified host name of the machine on which you are installing
- WebSphere Business Integration Server Express or Express Plus installation
directory
- If the installed WebSphere Business Integration Server Express or Express
Plus system uses DB2, provide the path to the DB2 installation's
java directory, for example, C:\Program
Files\IBM\SQLLIB\java. If the installed WebSphere Business
Integration Server Express or Express Plus system uses another database, use
the value null for this parameter.
- n (for no HTTP server)
- New Port number
- New SSL port number (default is 7043)
- Stop the ICSMonitor Application Server from the command line:
C:\Program Files\IBM\WebSphere\Express502\AppServer\bin\ /
stopServer.bat ICSMonitor
- Start the ICSMonitor Application Server from the command line:
C:\Program Files\IBM\WebSphere\Express502\AppServer\bin\ /
startServer.bat ICSMonitor
- To access System Monitor, type the URL:
http://hostname:portnumber//ICSMonitor
where hostname is the name of the computer on which WebSphere
Application Server is installed.
- To access Failed Event Manager, type the URL:
http://hostname:portnumber//FailedEvents
where hostname is the name of the computer on which WebSphere
Application Server is installed.
