Use extended manageability to configure the dynamic operation environment and the visualization capability to understand the operational state of the environment.
The features of WebSphere® Virtual Enterprise apply to the management of the WebSphere Extended Deployment Compute Grid environment and its associated background workload only when the two features are deployed together. Therefore, if you are a customer of WebSphere Extended Deployment Compute Grid, you must have both products to take advantage of the WebSphere Virtual Enterprise features.
Use runtime operations in the administrative console to visualize the inner workings of the product environment. You can see what types of decisions are made regarding deployment of applications and allocation of hardware. You can also discover where in a virtual resource pool the applications are running to facilitate debugging, manageability, and resiliency. Use runtime operations to view the current state of the environment and take administrative actions. For instance, you can override decisions made by the provisioner, or modify application priority and availability through the operations console.
