Enterprise Manager — Getting Started

To view this topic for the preceding Enterprise Manager, see Using The Enterprise Manager Java App.

The Enterprise Manager allows for simultaneous open connections to any number of machines.

Log in

To connect to a machine running BBjServices, log in using the Enterprise Manager Login dialog in one of two methods - through the browser or through Eclipse BASIS Enterprise Manager plug-in. Follow along for instructions to log in from a browser. To use the BASIS Eclipse plug-ins, visit https://www.basis.cloud/eclipseplug-ins.

Launch From a Browser

To access the Enterprise Manager from your browser, go to your <BASIS installation> program folder and click the Browser EM program icon
 

Alternatively, enter http://localhost:8888/bbjem/em into the address bar of any browser.

Double click “localhost” in the left navigation pane under the BBj EM Navigator tab.

Enter User Name and Password, and click [Login]:

The BBj EM Navigator pane and its options now appear for your selection. Click here for a description of each option.

Connect to a Remote System

A Connection login dialog window provides a quick and easy way to connect to servers that will be used more than once.

Click the green [+] at the top of the Navigator pane to open the Connection dialog window.

Complete the fields in the BBj Enterprise Manager Connection wizard

Specify a name for the connection

Specify the server host name and port number (usually 2002).

Click [OK].

Double click the new connection name or in this example, [My New Server].

Enter the username and password. The default administrator user is admin and default password is admin123.

Click [Login]. The connection information will be remembered each time you run the Browser Enterprise Manager.

Choose the connection from the list to connect using an existing connection definition.

   To remove the connection definitions from the list, highlight the connection and select the red [X].

 

Enterprise Manager Navigator

The BBj EM Navigator pane lists the various configuration settings into related groups: BBjServices, Security, File System, Database/SQL, Web, and Permissions.

To view or edit the settings in a particular group, simply double-click on that group in the Navigator to open a new window that displays the options. Below a table listing all the settings and their intended use.
