Description
In this book, IBM's own enterprise WebSphere experts offer authoritative, comprehensive guidance for deploying and managing WebSphere on z/OS for mainframes, UNIX(R)/Linux(R)-based distributed systems, and Windows(R) servers. Drawing on their extensive experience supporting enterprise customers and developing new WebSphere technologies, the authors address the entire management lifecycle: planning, installation, configuration, administration, application deployment, tuning, and troubleshooting. This book thoroughly covers WebSphere Application Server Version 5.0 and 5.1: both IBM Base WebSphere Application Server offerings and the advanced scalability and failover capabilities built into the popular IBM Network Deployment Edition. It has been designed to serve both as a comprehensive learning tool and as a rapid reference for working professionals.Coverage includes * The WebSphere Application Server architecture: a detailed introduction for working administrators * Installation and configuration on both distributed and z/OS platforms, from planning through security * Assembling, deploying, and securing applications with the Application Assembly Tool and Assembly Toolkit * Managing WebSphere Application Server, including clustering and workload management * Automating administrative tasks using the powerful WebSphere scripting tools * Performance monitoring/tuning using both WebSphere- and system-level tools, including real-world tuning scenarios * A start-to-finish methodology for WebSphere troubleshooting * Covering z/OS, UNIX, Linux, and Windows platforms * Learn all you need to know from IBM's own WebSphere development and advanced deployment teams * Includes the latest most thorough coverage WebSphere V5.
