- The internal messaging can be managed from the Deployment Manager. v There are two variations on distributed mode called simple distributed mode and full distributed mode. - In simple distributed mode all three WebSphere Partner Gateway components are part of the same cluster. This also includes a cluster of bcgmas server. - In full distributed mode each component is typically in its own cluster, for example the console is in a bcgconsole cluster, receiver in a bcgreceiver cluster, and the document manager in a bcgdocmgr cluster. In addition there is a messaging bcgmas cluster used for internal communication between the WebSphere Partner Gateway components. The Deployment Manager The role of the Deployment Manager is to give you a single view of all of the application servers in the cell from which you can administer the servers. To achieve this, a node agent has to be running on each node that hosts WebSphere Partner Gateway components. The Deployment Manager uses the node agents to interact with the application servers in the system. During a distributed mode installation, for each node in the system a node agent is installed and configured to communicate with the Deployment Manager. You use the Deployment Manager's web interface to manage the applications that are in the cell. If for some reason the Deployment Manager is not available then the WebSphere Partner Gateway components can be manually started or stopped from the command line, but other administration tasks cannot be performed until the Deployment Manager is available again. The most common administration task that is performed is starting and stopping the WebSphere Partner Gateway components. Other administration tasks like configuring a server for logging and tracing or changing the startup parameters for the Java Virtual Machine used by a server can also be performed with the Deployment Manager. To use the Deployment Manager: 1. Start the node agent on each node that hosts WebSphere Partner Gateway applications and the node where the bcgmas server is installed. To start the node agent on a computer use the WebSphere startNode script with no arguments. This script is located in the /wasND/Profiles/bcgprofile/bin directory. 2. Start the Deployment Manager. To start the Deployment Manager use the WebSphere Partner Gateway bcgStartServer script with no arguments. This script is located in the \bin directory. 3. Open an appropriate Internet browser. 4. Navigate to http://:55090/ibm/console to open the WebSphere Integrated Solutions Console Welcome login screen, and log in. Note: A user id is not required for logging in. On the left side of the Welcome screen you will see a list of tasks that can be done from this console. 5. To start or to stop all servers in a cluster: v In the left pane click Clusters v In the right pane, select the cluster to start or stop. v Click start or stop Chapter 2.

The internal messaging can be managed from the Deployment Manager.
v
There are two variations on distributed mode called simple distributed mode
and full distributed mode.
In simple distributed mode all three WebSphere Partner Gateway components
are part of the same cluster. This also includes a cluster of bcgmas server.
In full distributed mode each component is typically in its own cluster, for
example the console is in a
bcgconsole
cluster, receiver in a
bcgreceiver
cluster, and the document manager in a
bcgdocmgr
cluster. In addition there is
a messaging
bcgmas
cluster used for internal communication between the
WebSphere Partner Gateway components.
The Deployment Manager
The role of the Deployment Manager is to give you a single view of all of the
application servers in the cell from which you can administer the servers. To
achieve this, a node agent has to be running on each node that hosts WebSphere
Partner Gateway components. The Deployment Manager uses the node agents to
interact with the application servers in the system. During a distributed mode
installation, for each node in the system a node agent is installed and configured to
communicate with the Deployment Manager.
You use the Deployment Manager’s web interface to manage the applications that
are in the cell. If for some reason the Deployment Manager is not available then
the WebSphere Partner Gateway components can be manually started or stopped
from the command line, but other administration tasks cannot be performed until
the Deployment Manager is available again.
The most common administration task that is performed is starting and stopping
the WebSphere Partner Gateway components. Other administration tasks like
configuring a server for logging and tracing or changing the startup parameters for
the Java Virtual Machine used by a server can also be performed with the
Deployment Manager.
To use the Deployment Manager:
1.
Start the node agent on each node that hosts WebSphere Partner Gateway
applications and the node where the bcgmas server is installed. To start the
node agent on a computer use the WebSphere
startNode
script with no
arguments. This script is located in the
<
WebSphere Partner Gateway install
dir
>/wasND/Profiles/bcgprofile/bin
directory.
2.
Start the Deployment Manager. To start the Deployment Manager use the
WebSphere Partner Gateway
bcgStartServer
script with no arguments. This
script is located in the
<
Deployment Manager install dir
>\bin
directory.
3.
Open an appropriate Internet browser.
4.
Navigate to
http://<
computer name or IP address of the Deployment
Manager
>:55090/ibm/console
to open the WebSphere Integrated Solutions
Console Welcome login screen, and log in.
Note:
A user id is not required for logging in. On the left side of the Welcome
screen you will see a list of tasks that can be done from this console.
5.
To start or to stop all servers in a cluster:
v
In the left pane click

v
In the right pane, select the cluster to start or stop.
