2.1.1 System management in a stand-alone server environment

Each managed process has an administrative service that interacts with administration clients. In a stand-alone server environment, both the console application and the administrative service runs on the appserver. The configuration repository consists of one set of configuration files managed by the administrative service. System management is simplified in the sense that the changes made by the administrator are applied directly to the configuration files used by the server.

Figure 2-1 shows the management of a single-server installation.

The console will contain a subset of options that you see in the console for a distributed server environment. The options you will not see are related to the workload management and high availability features.
