You can use the WebSphere Application Server administrative console to start and stop IBM HTTP Server.
You can administer IBM HTTP Server through
the WebSphere Application Server administrative console using the
WebSphere Application Server node agent or using the the IBM HTTP
Server administration server. An IBM HTTP Server that is defined
to a deployment manager (dmgr) managed node is administered using
the node agent. An IBM HTTP Server that is defined to an unmanaged
node is administered using the administration server.
You can administer IBM HTTP Server
through the WebSphere Application Server administrative console using
the WebSphere Application Server node agent. In order to enable the
WebSphere Application Server administrative console for administering
IBM HTTP Server, you need to specify the -admin option during
installation of IBM HTTP Server. Or, if you already installed IBM
HTTP Server without specifying the -admin option, you can
run the bin/enable_admin script. For more information
about enabling the administrative console for administering IBM HTTP
Server on z/OS, see Installing IBM HTTP Server.
To confirm that IBM HTTP Server started successfully, open a browser and type in your server name in the URL box.
If you are going to run Application Response Measurement (ARM) agents, make sure you have the authority to run ARM agents when you start IBM HTTP Server.
