WAS v8.5 > Set up the application serving environmentAdminister application servers
User file permissions
To avoid permission-denied errors, start processes with user IDs that can read and update files created by other processes. For example, if you run the dmgr as user wasuser, and then also run the command line tool to generate plug-ins on that same profile, run the tool as user wasuser.
Base server1 gotcha
During the installation process the product creates a default application server, named server1. To create an additional application server or generic server, use wsadmin with either...
- createApplicationServer
- createGenericServer
We cannot use the dmgr console associated with the original base server to manage any additional servers that you create. You must either...
- Use command-line tools
- Set up an dmgr console for each server
- Configure administrative agent to provide a single interface to all of your servers, including the original base server.
If we do create additional application servers using the origial base dmgr, only use one server to modify and save configurations. Because there is no coordination of configuration setting between the different servers, if you modify and save configurations on multiple servers, your data might become corrupted.
