Chapter 2. Accessing the Management Console

Abstract

You use a Web browser to access the Fuse Management Console. Before you access the management console, you must set up a user name and password and start the Karaf console. If you want to manage fabric properties, you create a fabric from the Karaf console.

Overview

The Fuse Management Console is available by default when you install Red Hat JBoss Fuse. After you start the Karaf console, you can use the default URL to access the console locally or a custom URL to connect to a remote host.

Prerequisites

Before you access the management console, you must configure user credentials and start JBoss Fuse and configure user credentials.
Note
If you use JBoss Fuse on OpenShift, you can skip this task and access the management console directly with the JBoss Fuse application URL after you deploy the JBoss Fuse cartridge. For more information about how to get started with JBoss Fuse on OpenShift, see Cloud Computing with Fabric.
To configure user credentials and start JBoss Fuse:
  1. In the command line, navigate to the directory in which you installed JBoss Fuse and run the following command:
    ./fuse
    The Karaf console starts and shows version information, the default management console URL, and a list of common commands.
  2. If no user exists for JBoss Fuse, run the esb:create-admin-user command to create a user. You can also define the user name and password directly in the users.properties file. For more information, see the Red Hat JBoss Fuse Installation Guide.

Accessing the Management Console

You access the Fuse Management Console from a Web browser. For a list of supported browsers, see access.redhat.com.
To access the management console:
  1. In a Web browser, enter the URL to connect to the management console in the following format:
    http://<host_name>:<port_number>
    For example, use the following default URL to connect to the management console locally:
    http://localhost:8181
    Note
    You can configure the pax-web property to support HTTPS connections for a specific container.
  2. In the login page, enter the user name and password and click Log In.
    If you created or joined a fabric, the management console opens to the Fabric perspective. Otherwise, only the Container perspective is available. By default, the management console shows the Welcome page. You can choose to hide the Welcome page at the bottom of the page.

Chapter 3. Securing the Management Console

Abstract

The Management Console has authentication enabled by default. You can optionally enable SSL/TLS security to provide message encryption, thereby protecting username/password credentials from on-the-wire snooping.

Overview

There are two main aspects to securing the Management Console:
  • Authentication (enabled by default)
  • SSL/TLS security

Authentication

Authentication is enabled by default on the Management Console and is required in order for the Management Console to function correctly. For your information, the authentication mechanism consists of the following key elements:
  • HTTP BASIC authentication protocol—the standard HTTP protocol for transferring username/password credentials is the BASIC authentication protocol. This protocol sends username/password credentials in plaintext, so these credentials are vulnerable to snooping, unless you enable SSL/TLS security.
  • JAAS authentication—the Java Authentication and Authorization Service (JAAS) is a pluggable framework for authenticating credentials on the server side. The Jetty servlet container (which hosts the Management Console) is configured to use the karaf JAAS realm by default. This ensures that the Management Console uses the same pool of user credentials as the other standard container services (where the user credentials are usually stored in the etc/users.properties file by default, in a standalone container).

SSL/TLS security

SSL/TLS security is not enabled by default for the Management Console. It is recommended that you enable SSL/TLS security on the Management Console to protect username/password credentials from snooping. For detailed instructions on how to enable SSL/TLS security, please see the following reference:

Part II. Container Management

Abstract

You use the Fuse Management Console to deploy containers to a fabric and manage container properties. You can manage properties for each container such as the JMX domains, versions, and hosts. You can also review log entries and monitor system status and performance while the container runs.

Chapter 4. Container Perspective

When you log in to the management console, you use the Container perspective to configure and monitor runtime information about a specific container. By detault, the Container perspective shows information about the root container. You can also select and connect to any container from the Fabric perspective.
The Container perspective contains a toolbar that you use to manage and monitor container components. The actual areas depend on the container features and bundles and whether the container is deployed to a fabric. The toolbar can contain the following options:
OptionDescription
ActiveMQTree view and details of running Apache ActiveMQ brokers. This page is available only when you connect to a container with an ActiveMQ profile.
CamelTree view and details of running Apache Camel routes. This page is available only when you connect to a container with a Camel profile.
ConnectConnection page to a remote server or a local JVM with a running Jolokia agent.
Dashboard Overview of the management console status, services status, and system performance. You can add views to the dashboard and create additional dashboards. If you create or join a fabric, this toolbar option is not available. Use the Dashboard page in the Fabric perspective to view information for all containers in the fabric. For more information, see Dashboard Page.
HealthList and status of running health mbeans. This page shows any available container health mbeans. If you create or join a fabric, this toolbar option is not available. Use the Health page in the Fabric perspective to view fabric and container health mbeans. For more information, see Health Page.
JMXTree view of the JMX domains and mbeans. You can view details and execute commands on the mbeans.
LogsList of log entries. Use this page to view activity details and error messages.
OSGiDetailed view of the JBoss Fuse OSGi environment. Use this page to manage bundles, features and configurations, and view details of Java packages and OSGi services.
TerminalEmulator view of the Karaf console. Use this page to run JBoss Fuse commands in the same way you run commands in the Karaf console.
ThreadsList of active threads and stack trace details for each thread.
WikiExplorer view of the fabric configuration repository and wiki content. The repository contains files that affect the behavior of the fabric during runtime. This toolbar option is available only if you create or join a fabric, and opens the Wiki page in the Fabric perspective. For more information, see Wiki Page.

Chapter 5. Managing Containers

Overview

You can create, edit, and delete a container from the Fabric perspective of the management console. The type of container you create depends on the purpose and location of the container.
You can create a child container, a cloud container, or an ssh container. If you create a cloud container, make sure you have the credentials to your cloud account. If you create an ssh container, make sure you have the remote host properties.
You can access the container from multiple areas of the Fabric perspective. For example, you can use the Containers page in the Runtime area or the Wiki page.
If the Fabric perspective is not available, make sure that your fabric is available or create a new fabric. If you do not create or join a fabric, you must use the Karaf console to create the container and use the Container perspective to view and manage container properties.

Creating a container

Depending on the location from which you create the container, the management console auto-fills one or more container properties. For example, if you create a container for an existing profile from the Wiki page, the profile name appears in the Selected Profiles list.
To create a container:
  1. Click the Create button to open the Create New Container page.
  2. Set the container properties, such as the name and user credentials to use when JBoss Fuse runs the container.
  3. Click the Create Container button to save the container. The Containers page opens and shows the container name and status. It may take some time to download and assign all the container features and dependencies.
    Note
    If you create an OpenShift container, the container also appears as an application on the OpenShift applications page.

Editing container properties

You can access the Container Details page from multiple areas in the Fabric perspective of the management console.
To edit a container, click the container name and edit the container properties in the Container Details page. If you added or removed profiles, bundles, or other components, the management console shows the progress of the changes and the state of the container.

Deleting one or more containers

You can delete containers from various areas of the management console, such as the Containers page or the Manage page of the Runtime area.
To delete the containers, select one or more containers from the list and click the - icon or the Delete button.

Creating or joining a fabric

You create or join a fabric from the Karaf console or from the Terminal page in the Container perspective of the management console. You use the same command syntax in the Karaf console and the Terminal page.
To create a fabric, run the following command:
fabric:create
The Karaf console shows the default zookeeper password to use when you access the fabric.
To join a fabric, run the following command:
fabric:join <zookeeper_URL> <container_name>
You can set optional arguments, such as the profile or the port range. For more information, see the [Red Hat JBoss Fuse Console Reference].

Chapter 15. Managing Profiles

Overview

A profile is a set of instructions to use when you run containers in a fabric. For example, a profile might contain one or more bundles, features, or configuration objects that you want to assign to multiple containers.
JBoss Fuse provides a default set of profiles based on the distribution that you install. You must create or join a fabric before you can manage profiles. You can create, edit, and delete profiles. You can also add or remove features, bundles, or feature repositories from an existing profile.

Creating a profile

  1. In the Profiles section of the Manage page or the Wiki page, click the + icon. The Create New Profile dialog box opens. To create a profile in an existing folder, you can drill down to the folder in which you want to create the profile and click the + icon.
  2. Enter a name for the profile. Use dash characters to create directory levels. Each dash character adds a level to the directory hierarchy. For example, if you enter MyProfile-Profile1, the management console creates the directory MyProfile under the main profiles directory and creates the Profile1 in that directory.
    If you create a profile from an existing folder, you do not need to use the dash character to create a directory. The profile appears in the directory from which you create the profile.
  3. If you want the profile to inherit features, bundles, or other configuration properties from one or more existing profiles, select the profiles from the list.
  4. Save the profile. The Manage pages shows the profile and the parent directory. You can click the profile name to edit the profile.

Editing a profiles

  1. In the Profiles section of the Manage page or the Wiki page, click a profile name. The Profile Details page opens.
  2. Edit the profile properties and save the changes. The management console updates the profile properties and deploys the changes to any container to which you assigned the profile.

Deleting one or more profiles

  1. In the Profiles section of the Manage page, select one or more profiles.
  2. Click the - icon and confirm the deletion. The management console deletes the profiles and removes the deleted profiles from assigned containers.

Chapter 16. Assigning Profiles to Containers

Overview

You can assign one or more profiles to a container in a fabric. Each profile contains configuration information, such as features, bundles, or system properties. You must create or join a fabric before you can assign profiles to containers.

Creating a container with an assigned profile

  1. Open the Create New Container page to create a new container. You can create a new container from multiple locations in the management console, such as the Containers page or the Configuration page.
  2. In the Profiles section of the Create New Container page, click a folder to show the available profiles for that category or enter a filter string to search the profile list for a specific profile.
  3. Select one or more profiles and enter the container properties in the same way that you enter the container properties for a standalone container.

Assigning or removing a profile from an existing container

  1. Open the Container Details page for the container that you want to edit. In most areas of the management console, you click the container name to drill down to the container details. The Container Details page shows the assigned profiles on the left pane.
  2. Choose whether to add or remove profiles from the container.
    • To add profiles to the container, click the Add button and select one or more profiles from the list. You can add profiles based on the profiles that you already assigned to the container. For example, you cannot add a JON profile to a container that runs with a SOAP profile.
    • To remove profiles from the container, select one or more profiles and click the Remove button. If you remove all profiles from a container, JBoss Fuse assigns the default profile to the container.

Assigning multiple profiles to multiple containers

  1. In the Manage page of the Runtime area, select one or more profiles from the Profiles section.
  2. Select one or more containers from the Containers section. A green arrow appears in the Profiles section.
  3. Click the green arrow to apply the selected profiles to the selected containers.

Chapter 17. Patching a Fabric

Overview

This section explains how to apply patches to a fabric. In a fabric, patches are applied to individual containers, so you can choose whether you want to apply a given patch to just some or all containers in a fabric.

Patching a fabric

To patch a fabric container (or containers) from the Management Console, perform the following steps:
  1. In the dropdown box below the Versions button, select the version that you are going to apply the patch to. Now click the box icon on the left of the + icon, on the Versions button:
  2. The Applying patch to version 1.1... page appears:
    Fill in the fields on this page as follows:
    1. Use the Add button to add one or more patch files.
    2. (Optional) Enter a name for the new version (to which the patch will be applied).
      Important
      The version name must be a pure numeric string, such as 1.1, 1.2, 2.1, or 2.2. You cannot incorporate alphabetic characters in the version name (such as 1.0.patch).
    3. Enter the administrator credentials, User Name and Password.
    4. Click Apply.
  3. Apply the patched version to a container (or containers) from the Manage page.
    Perform the following steps:
    1. Select the container(s) to migrate, by clicking on the circle next to the container name.
    2. Use the dropdown list to select the patched version that you want to migrate to.
    3. Click the green arrowhead on the Versions button to complete the migration.
  4. If the migration is successful, you should see the changed version of the container on the Manage page. For example, in the preceding example, the root / 1.0 container would change to root / 1.2.
