Web Services Distributed Management in a network deployment cell

You can use Web Services Distributed Management (WSDM) to manage application server instances within a Network Deployment cell. The administrative support and visibility for WSDM in a cell is obtained through interaction with each WSDM application deployed on the application server.

In the multinode Network Deployment environment, the management code runs across a distributed network of Java virtual machines with a central access point as the deployment manager process for the entire network or cell. Several different application server Java virtual machines might be managed within a cell. You can manage an application server Java virtual machines within a cell through the WSDM application installed on that application server. The WSDM application acts as an administrative client to the managed application server. The WSDM application can only be managed from the application server that it is deployed on. Figure 1 illustrates this environment with an Autonomic Computing Manager interacting with the single WebSphere Application Server WSDM to expose the manageability of that application server. You can build a federated deployment manager cell from individual application server instances by running the addNode utility program to add the application server instances to the centrally managed cell. After a node is added to the cell, the manager can still manage each application server within the cell through the installed WSDM application.
