Starting the Application Server Administration console
To start the Application Server Administration console, run the blasadmin
utility. How you start the utility depends whether you want to configure the default Application Server or one of multiple Application Servers on the host.
To start the utility for the default Application Server
To start the Application Server Administration console when there is a single Application Server on the host, do one of the following:
- (Windows) Do one of the following (both options run the same command):
- From the Start menu, select Programs > BMC Software > BladeLogic Server Automation Suite > Utilities > Application Server Administration.
- From the directory where BMC Server Automation is installed, enter the following:
\bin\blasadmin.exe
(UNIX) From the directory where BMC Server Automation is installed, enter the following:
./br/blasadmin
This command starts theblasadmin
utility.Note
All commands you enter during the session affect only the default Application Server. Application Servers created on the host in the future do not have those changes. To have changes affect future Application Servers, use this command to start the
blasadmin
utility and configure the _template deployment:blasadmin -s _template
For information about the default and _template deployments, see Managing multiple Application Servers on the same host.
To start the utility with multiple Application Servers on the same host
If there are multiple Application Servers on the same host, you must specify whether you want to use the utility to configure one specific Application Server or all Application Servers on the host. Do one of the following:
- To start the utility and configure one specific Application Server, use:
blasadmin -s <appServerName>
where:
-s <appServerName>
is the Application Server name.
For example:
blasadmin -s OtherJobServer
This command starts theblasadmin
utility and enables you to enter commands. All commands you enter during the session (until you enter exit at theblasadmin
prompt) affect only the Application Server you specified. - To start the utility and configure all Application Servers on the host, use:
blasadmin -a
This command starts the utility and enables you to enterset
andshow
commands. All commands you enter during the session affect:- All additional Application Servers configured on the same host
- The _template deployment
- The default Application Server
For information about deployments, see Managing multiple Application Servers on the same host.
Note
The -a
option does not affect _pxe, _spawner, and _launcher. Use the -s
option to explicitly specify these instances.
