Configuration

When you access the manager on an application server, you can use the Configuration interface. Use Configuration to view and configure the connections between the manager, management servers, and proxies.

Users with administrator access to the manager (user role admin) can use Configuration to perform the following tasks.
  • Adding management servers and proxies.
  • Adding licenses for your management servers.
  • Uploading JDBC database drivers to the repository.
  • Creating service groups and granting user access to these service groups
  • Creating user-defined tabs that are displayed within the manager
  • Configuring the tabs that can be viewed by users who do not have user role admin

Administrators can perform these tasks immediately after setting the location of the registry to be used by the manager. An administrator must add at least one management server and proxy before any user can run any services from the manager.

Users with database administrator access to the manager (user role dba) can use Configuration to perform the following tasks.
  • Adding licenses for your management servers, if users who do not have administrator access are allowed to view Configuration > Management Servers
  • Uploading JDBC database drivers to the repository, if users who do not have administrator access are allowed to view Configuration > Database Drivers
