Configuring appservers

 

Overview

This section describes how to create and configure application servers in an existing appserver environment. This topic closely relates to information that is included in other areas of the WebSphere Application Server for z/OS Information Center. The relevant links are provided in this section.

A WebSphere Application Server administrator can configure one or more appservers and perform tasks such as the following:

1. Create appservers.
2. Create generic servers.
3. Creating clusters
4. Manage appservers.
5. Configure transports.
6. Develop custom services.
7. Define processes for the appserver.
   • Process execution statements for starting or initializing a UNIX process
   • Monitoring policies to track the performance of a process
   • Process logs to which standard out and standard error streams write
   • Name-value pairs for properties
8. Use the Java virtual machine.

After preparing a server, deploy an application or component on the server. See "Preparing to host applications" for a sample procedure that you might follow in configuring the application server run-time and resources.
