Managing Java EE Installation

Managing Java EE Installation

The Java EE Integration Agent manages the Java EE agent installations and integrations with application servers. The Installations tab of the Java Administration dashboard provides an overview of all configured installations, including their versions, installation directories, upgrade status, and Java EE Integration Agent name and availability.

From here, you can activate or deactivate the Java EE Integration Agent, open the log file for the agent, delete an installation, or view the installation properties. You can also check whether an installation is eligible for upgrade and, if so, perform an in-place upgrade.

Activating and deactivating the Java EE Integration Agent

The Java EE Integration Agent manages the integration of Java EE agents with application servers. The Java EE agents are the monitoring agents that collect the data. The integration agent also manages the integration script files, communication with the Nexus, and logging.

In the menu that opens, click either Activate or Deactivate, as applicable.

Reviewing integration and agent installation log files

When you integrate a Java EE agent with an application server, the Java EE Integration Agent generates a log file detailing the process and any warning messages that occur during the installation. You can review this file to check the installation configuration, or to determine if there were any issues.
