An application server configuration provides settings that
control how an application server provides services for running applications
and their components.
About this task
After you install the product, you might have to perform
one or more of the following tasks. Unless the task you want to perform
is dependent on the existence of an application server, you can perform
these tasks in any order.
Procedure
- Create an application server.
- Create
clusters for workload balancing.
- Configure transport chains to handle client requests.
- Develop custom services.
- Define processes for the application server.
As part of defining processes, you might want to:
- Define process execution statements for starting or initializing
a UNIX process.
- Configure monitoring policies to track the performance of a process.
- Configure the process logs to which standard out and standard
error streams write.
- Configure name-value pairs for properties.
- Configure the Java virtual machine.
Optional: Run WebSphere Application Server for z/OS controllers
and daemons in reusable address spaces whenever possible. For more
information, see the documentation about the reusable address space.
Results
Any new application servers you create appear in the list
of servers on the administrative console Application servers page.
What to do next
- Manage your application servers. Any newly created
application servers are configured with many default settings that
do not display when you run the Create New Application Server wizard.
You might need to change some of these settings to better fit the
needs of your environment.
- Deploy an application or component on your application server.
