Install and uninstalling the administrative console
You can install the administrative console during profile creation or after you create a profile. We can uninstall any administrative console that you install.
To install an administrative console after profile creation, or to uninstall the administrative console, use the wsadmin.sh command. This topic discusses how to use the wsadmin.sh command to install and uninstall the administrative console.
If you install the administrative console through the wsadmin.sh command, a profile that does not have an administrative console installed must exist.
Run the deployConsole script on the wsadmin.sh command whenever to uninstall the administrative console, or whenever you want to install the administrative console to a profile that does not have an administrative console installed.
We can run the script in either connected or disconnected mode.
Unfederated application servers, admin agents, dmgrs, and job managers can have their own administrative consoles. The steps in this task apply to these consoles.
The usual security restrictions for the wsadmin.sh command apply to this script. In connected mode, the user must authenticate if security is enabled.
To install or uninstall the dmgr administrative console, the wsadmin.sh command attempts to remotely connect to the dmgr. However, various situations can keep the wsadmin.sh command from connecting to the dmgr, and an error message results. The command cannot connect if:
- The dmgr is not running.
- The dmgr is running, but the script was run somewhere other than on the dmgr. You are most likely running the script on a federated node.
