Verifying that the node agent is running

 

Verify that the node agent is running before you start the administrative console.

 

Overview

Use the addNode command to add WebSphere Application Server nodes to the cell which your deployment manager profile is managing.

 

Procedure

  1. Run the Work with Active Jobs (WRKACTJOB) command on the CL command line, specifying the proper subsystem on the subsystem (SBS) parameter:

    WRKACTJOB SBS(QWAS61)

  2. Find the server job for your deployment manager profile. The node agent job name is the same as the node name for the application server profile. For the default application server profile, the node name is the same as the host name of the iSeries sever.

  3. Specify option 5 (Work with Job) on the option line next to the job, then press Enter.

  4. On the command line of the Work with Job display, specify option 10 (Display job log, if active), then press Enter. Press F10 to display all messages.

  5. Look for this message:

    WebSphere application server nodeagent ready.

    If the message is not displayed, press F5 to refresh the job log messages until the message displays.

 

Results

When the message is displayed, the node agent has successfully started. It can take up to 20 minutes for the message to be displayed, depending on your iSeries server.

If the message does not display, see iSeries installation troubleshooting tips.

 

What to do next

Start the administrative console for the deployment manager, as described in Starting the administrative console for the deployment manager.
