ivt command

The install verification (ivt) script verifies that the application server for an instance is functioning correctly.

For a WebSphere Application Server instance, the ivt script verifies that a JavaServer page, a servlet and an enterprise bean can be successfully invoked. For a WAS Network Deployment instance, the ivt script verifies that the deployment manager can be contacted successfully. If the application server is not running, the ivt script attempts to start it before verification begins. For WebSphere Application Server instances, the ivtApp application must be installed in the server. By default, this application is installed in the default server created when creating an instance. To run this script, the user profile must have *ALLOBJ authority.

Syntax

The command syntax is as follows:

ivt [-instance instance]

Parameters
