When you created a deployment manager profile, a deployment manager was created. A deployment manager provides a single, central point of administrative control for all elements in a WebSphere Application Server distributed cell. You can run the deployment manager with its default settings. However, you can follow this task to change the deployment manager configuration settings such as the ports the process uses, custom services, logging and tracing settings, and so on. To view information about and manage a deployment manager, use the settings page for a deployment manager.
