11.3. Admin Console

The first release of the JBoss Enterprise Application Platform Admin Console (admin-console) provides the following administrative features:
  • configuration information about the system on which the Enterprise Application Platform is running.
  • configuration information about the Service Binding Manager.
  • deploy, undeploy and update Enterprise Applications, including:
    • Java EE Enterprise Applications (EARs)
    • Web Applications (WARs)
    • Resource Adapters (RARs)
    • Enterprise JavaBean 2 and 3 (JARs)
  • persistent configuration changes for the following resources:
    • data sources
    • connection factories
    • JMS queues and topics (based on JBoss Messaging)
  • Control Operations:
    • execute scripts to perform tasks against a running instance of the application server
    • stop, start, and restart applications
    • view resource statistics
    • view resource metric information
The new admin-console provided with JBoss Enterprise Application Platform retains the JMX and web consoles. admin-console supports the production, all, web and default configurations out of the box. It has also been tested with standard server profile, but is not included in standard by default. To use admin-console in a standard profile, copy the admin-console.war from one of the supported server profiles.

Note

The Admin Console is not intended for use with the minimal configuration provided with the distribution. Custom configurations based on this configuration should not be used with the Admin Console, either.
When the server has been started, you can use the admin-console to perform administrative tasks for your application server. To use the admin-console, navigate to http://${hostname}:8080/admin-console.
Refer to the Administration Console User Guide for more information on the Admin Console.
