WAS provides a Dynamic Cache Monitor application for displaying...

• cache statistics
• Edge Side and disk statistics
• cache entries
• dependency IDs
• cache policy information

To use the cache monitor, install the CacheMonitor.ear Web application. Once the CacheMonitor.ear Web application is installed, restart the application server and Web server to use the cache monitor.

1. Install the cache monitor in order to inspect the contents and behavior of the WAS dynamic cache.

2. Launch the cache monitor using one of the following methods:

   1. You can access the Web application using a Web browser with the following Web address:

      http://host_name:port/cachemonitor

   2. However, for a more secure access, IBM recommends that you access the Administration host machine:

      https://admin_host_name: port/cachemonitor

   3. For example, if the virtual host...

      VH_instance_admin

      ...is used for installing the Cache Monitor, then the Cache Monitor can be accessed as:

      https://admin_host_name:8002/cachemonitor

You need to launch one dynamic cache monitor for every WebSphere Commerce instance.

Whenever you want to use the Cache Monitor and you have WebSphere Application Server EJB security enabled, perform some additional security configuration for the Dynamic Cache Monitor.
