Starting and terminating generic application servers

This topic describes how to start and terminate generic servers.

Why and when to perform this task

If you create a generic server on a base WebSphere Application Server, you cannot use the base Application Server administrative console to start or terminate this server. You must use the wsadmin tool to manage this server.

If you create a generic server in a Network Deployment environment, you can use the administrative console to start and terminate this server.

Steps for this task

  1. Start a generic application server.

    There are two ways to start a generic server in a Network Deployment environment. You can use the MBean NodeAgent launchProcess operation of the wsadmin tool, or you can use the administrative console. To use the administrative console:

    1. In the administrative console, click Servers > Application Servers.
    2. Select the name of the generic server you want to start, and then click Start.
    1. View the Status value and any messages or logs to see whether the generic server starts.
  2. Terminate generic servers.

    2. Select the check box beside the name of the generic server, and then click Terminate.
      Restriction: The Stop and Stop Immediate buttons on the administrative console do not work for generic servers.
    3. View the Status value and any messages or logs to see whether the generic server terminates.
