Server page

Use this topic to learn how to navigate within the dmgr console to the pages where we can view information about the application servers, generic servers, Java message service (JMS) servers, and web servers that are defined for the system.

We can use these respective dmgr console pages to perform the following tasks for the listed servers:

• Select one or more of the listed servers, and then click Start to start those servers.

• Select one or more of the listed servers, and then click one of the following options to stop those servers:

  STOP

  When you click this option, the normal server quiesce process is followed. This process allows in-flight requests to complete before the entire server process shuts down.

  Immediate Stop

  This option is only available for application servers.

  When you click this button, the selected sever stops but the normal server quiesce process is not followed. This shutdown mode is faster than the normal server stop processing, but some application clients might receive exceptions if an in-flight request does not complete before the server process shuts down.

  Terminate

  You should only click Terminate if the server does not respond when we click Stop, or, Immediate Stop or when we issue the Stop or ImmediateStop commands. Some application clients can receive exceptions. Therefore, you should always attempt an immediate stop before clicking Terminate.

• Click New to create a new server.

• Click Templates to create a new server template.

• Select one or more of the listed servers, and then click Delete those servers.

To view the Application servers page, in the dmgr console page, click Servers > Server Types > WebSphere application servers. This page lists all of the application servers in the cell.

To view the web servers page, in the dmgr console, click Servers > Server Types > Web servers. This page lists all of the web servers in your administrative domain. In addition to the previously mentioned actions, we can use this page to generate and propagate a web server plug-in configuration file.

Name

Logical name for the server. For WebSphere Application Server, server names must be unique within a node.

Node

Node on which the server resides.

Host Name

IP address, the full DNS host name with a domain name suffix, or the short DNS host name for the server.

Version

Version of the product on which the server runs.

Status

Whether the server is started, stopped, partially stopped, or unavailable. If the status is unavailable, the node agent is not running in that node and you must restart the node agent before we can start the server.

Server status and meaning. The following table describes the server status.

Icon	Status	Description
	Started	The server is running.
	Partially stopped	The server is in the process of changing from a started state to a stopped state.
	Stopped	The server is not running.
	Unavailable	The server status cannot be determined.
