Manage profiles using commands

Use commands to create a profile, start the server of the profile, display ports used by your server, and open the dmgr console.

This task assumes a basic familiarity with the command, other application server commands, and system commands.

Before we can create and use a profile, install the product. Create a profile, start the server of the profile, display ports used by your server, and open the dmgr console for the server.

This example deals with the profile environment of a standalone application server.

1. Create the server profile from the original installation:
   app_server_root\bin\manageprofiles.bat

   Assume that you create the profile using the defaults. The following script is an example for creating an application server profile:

   app_server_root\bin\manageprofiles.bat -create -templatePath app_server_root\profileTemplates\default

2. Change directories to the profile_root/bin directory of the new server profile.

3. Start the server.

   Issue the startServer command.

   startServer.bat server1 -profileName profile_name

   The -profileName argument is not necessary if we have already changed to the profile_root/bin directory of the target profile.

4. Display the ports.

   These are the ports assigned during profile creation.

   Edit...

   profile_root\properties\portdef.props

5. Open the dmgr console.

   The server1 dmgr console is defined on the WC_adminhost setting for the non-secure dmgr console port or the WC_adminhost_secure setting for the secure dmgr console port.

   If the value of the WC_adminhost port for the server is 20003, for example, specify the following web address in your browser:

   http://host_name_or_IP_address:20003/ibm/console/

   If the value of the WC_adminhost_secure port for the server is 9061, for example, specify the following web address in your browser:

   https://host_name_or_IP_address:9061/ibm/console/

Results

We created an application server profile, started an application server, and accessed the dmgr console using your browser.

Deploy an application.
