6.6.46.6: Using administrative server agents
The product installation program always installs
full administrative servers. To produce an administrative
agent, edit the administrative server
configuration file.
- Install an administrative server on a machine.
- Edit the admin.config file in the bin directory of the
product_installation_root.
- Remove the name service JAR property:
com.ibm.ejs.sm.adminServer.nameServiceJar=jar-file
- Specify the dbUrl, dbUserId, and dbPassword properties:
com.ibm.ejs.sm.adminServer.dbUser=user_name
com.ibm.ejs.sm.adminServer.dbUrl=location
com.ibm.ejs.sm.adminServer.dbPassword=password
- Set:
install.initial.config=false
com.ibm.ejs.sm.adminServer.createTables=false
- Add or update the property:
com.ibm.ejs.sm.adminServer.primaryNode=value
where value is the name of the node containing
the full administrative server to which this agent will connect.
To be safe, use the fully qualified name.
- Add or update the property:
com.ibm.ejs.sm.adminServer.bootstrapHost=value
where value is the host name of the machine containing
the full administrative server. To be safe, use the fully qualified
name.
- Add or update the property:
com.ibm.ejs.sm.adminServer.agentMode=true
- Optionally, specify the properties:
com.ibm.ejs.sm.adminServer.bootstrapPort=value
com.ibm.ejs.sm.adminServer.lsdPort=value
if the default values (9000 and 900, respectively) are not
being used by the full administrative server.
Both nodes must use the same values.
- Save the file.
- Start the full administrative server.
- Start the administrative agent the same way you
started the full administrative server.
- Start the Java administrative console on
the machine containing the administrative server agent. Pass the administrative
console the host name of the machine containing the full administrative
server:
adminclient full_adminserver_hostname
To be safe, use the fully qualified host name.
- Start the Java administrative console on the
full administrative server machine. Confirm that the administrative
server agent is displayed as a node in the tree view.
If the console was already running when you configured and started the agent,
you might need to refresh the console in order to see the new node for the agent.
