Install and uninstalling the console
You can install the console during profile creation or after you create a profile. You can uninstall any console that you install. To install an console after profile creation, or to uninstall the console, use the wsadmin command. This topic discusses how to use the wsadmin command to install and uninstall the console. If you install the console through the wsadmin command, a profile that does not have an console installed must exist.
Overview
Run the deployConsole script on the wsadmin command whenever you want to uninstall the console, or whenever you want to install the console to a profile that does not have an administrative console installed.
You can run the script in either connected or disconnected mode.
The usual security restrictions for the wsadmin command apply to this script. In connected mode, the user must authenticate if security is enabled. Whenever the console is installed, it is installed onto the deployment manager server. The wsadmin command attempts to remotely connect to the deployment manager to install or uninstall the console. However, various situations can keep the wsadmin command from connecting to the deployment manager, and an error message results. The command cannot connect if:
- The deployment manager is not running.
- The deployment manager is running, but the script was run somewhere other than on the deployment manager. You are most likely running the script on a federated node.
