Chapter 4 Managing TIBCO ActiveMatrix Runtime UDDI Server : Administration Console

Administration Console
TIBCO ActiveMatrix Runtime UDDI Server provides a web-based graphic interface called Administration Console that administrator users can use to configure the server.
To start configuring the server, open your web browser and point it to http://Host:Port/uddi. Type in the administrator’s username and password, and then click the Log in button to access Administration Console. It is structured like a tree, as shown in Figure 8.
Figure 8 Administration Console
General Configuration
The General Configuration node in the tree contains most of the properties relevant for the operation of TIBCO ActiveMatrix Runtime UDDI Server.
While setting the properties in the General Configuration section through Administration Console, you cannot permanently save the configuration changes. After TIBCO ActiveMatrix Runtime UDDI Server restarts, those changes will be lost.
To permanently save the configuration changes, you need to provide the customized configuration files or entries and make the changes using the srvconfig command.
General
Expand the tree and click General under the General Configuration node to open the General Configuration page in the right pane. Configure the following items on the page.
The number of database connections in the C3P0 connection pool.
The UDDI Server domain. This will be prepended to all generated keys, such as uddi:domain.com
The UDDI Node ID.
The server host name and port. This is used for the server's own AccessPoint description in TIBCO ActiveMatrix Runtime UDDI Server.
Storage factory implementation.
Disable HTTP_GET support.
If enabled, you can view the HTTP_GET endpoint through the browser by accessing http://Host:Port/uddi/http_get.
For detailed information about accessing the UDDI endpoint with a HTTP request, refer to TIBCO ActiveMatrix Runtime UDDI Server User’s Guide.
Hibernate
Expand the tree and click Hibernate under the General Configuration node to open the Hibernate Configuration page in the right pane. You can view the configuration on the page.
For example: org.hibernate.dialect.MySQLDialect
For example: org.hibernate.cache.OSCacheProvider
For example: java:comp/env/jdbc/UddiDatabase
Authorization
Expand the tree and click Authorization under the General Configuration node to open the Authorization Configuration page in the right pane. Configure the following items on the page.
To enable anonymous inquiry, select Ignored in the inquiryAuthInfo drop-down list. Click the Apply button next to the inquiryAuthInfo drop-down list, or click the Apply all button at the bottom to complete the operation. This option is the default option.
To disable anonymous inquiry, select Required in the inquiryAuthInfo drop-down list. Click the Apply button next to the inquiryAuthInfo drop-down list, or click the Apply all button at the bottom to complete the operation.
This indicates how long authorization tokens are valid in milliseconds. The value can be set to 0 or greater than 60000 (1min) and the default value is 1800000 (30min). If the value is 0, tokens do not expire. Tokens are not persistent, so they will be lost when the server restarts.
Journal
Expand the tree and click Journal under the General Configuration node to open the Journal Configuration page in the right pane. Configure the following items in the page.
The maximum number of modification records held by an object. Set the value to 0 to keep all records.
Set to true to enable the journal, false to disable it. The journal is necessary to support subscriptions.
Monitor
The Monitor node in the tree presents runtime statistics and logs for TIBCO ActiveMatrix Runtime UDDI Server. You can modify the log-levels at runtime.
While setting the properties in the Monitor section through Administration Console, you cannot permanently save the configuration changes. After TIBCO ActiveMatrix Runtime UDDI Server restarts, those changes will be lost.
To permanently save the configuration changes, provide the customized configuration files or entries (for example, the log folder or the customized message file) and make the changes by using the srvconfig command.
Monitor
Expand the tree and click Monitor under the Monitor node to open the Server Statistics page in the right pane. Configure the following items in the page.
Journal Log
Expand the tree and click Journal Log under the Monitor node to open the Journal Log page in the right pane. Configure the following item in the page.
