Introduction

Service Manager is a web-based system administration tool that simplifies Enterprise Gateway
management tasks. It provides quick and easy access to enable you to manage your Web
Services and policies online. For example, you can perform tasks such as the following:
|
Logging in to Service Manager
|
To log in to Service Manager in your browser, perform the following steps:
-
Ensure that the Enterprise Gateway is running (for example, use the
enterprisegateway command to start).
-
Enter the following URL in your browser:
| | |
|
http://localhost:8090/manager/
| |
| | |
|
-
Enter your user name and password. The default values are as follows:
-
User Name:
admin
-
Password:
changeme
Note |
You can log in to Service Manager from multiple browsers. However, only the most
recent login is a valid session from which you can make updates. You can not make
updates from multiple browsers concurrently. By default, Service Manager sessions
expire after 30 minutes of inactivity.

Logging out of Service Manager
|
To log out of Service Manager, perform the following steps:
-
Click the Logout icon in the top right corner of the Service Manager screen. The tool tip displays
the current user (for example,
Logout user admin ).
- In the Confirm Logout dialog, click Yes.
When you log out, your session is expired. However, any updates that you have not yet deployed
remain unchanged until you log in again and make more updates, or discard the updates not yet
deployed.
To log in again as the same user, click the Log in button in the
Service Manager Login web page. To log in again as a different user, specify the user name
and password, and click the Log in button. Alternatively, open a new browser,
and perform the steps described in Logging in to
Service Manager.
Note |
When using Firefox, before opening a new browser to log in as a different user,
close all existing Service Manager browser sessions. This is due to how sessions
are managed in Firefox.

Deploying to the Enterprise Gateway
|
You can deploy configuration updates to the Enterprise Gateway by clicking the Deploy
icon at the top right of the Service Manager screen. Alternatively, select
Configuration -> Deploy from the Service Manager main menu
at the top left.
The Deploy menu item is enabled only if the configuration specified in
Service Manager differs from the active configuration deployed in the Enterprise Gateway. These
configurations are compared when Service Manager is launched, and after each time you make
an update in Service Manager. If the configuration specified in Service Manager differs from
the active configuration deployed in the Enterprise Gateway, a Configuration needs to be
Synchronized message is displayed, and Deploy is enabled.
After you deploy your updates, Deploy is disabled because your configuration is
now the same as the current active Enterprise Gateway configuration. Each time you access Service Manager,
it checks that your local configuration is in-sync with the current active Enterprise Gateway configuration.
It checks that no other user deployed changes after you last took a copy of the current Enterprise Gateway
configuration and started editing. If another user deployed changes, you can re-sync your deployment
in the Out-of-Sync dialog.

Discarding from Service Manager
|
You can discard configuration updates from Service Manager, and obtain updates from the Enterprise Gateway,
by clicking the Discard icon at the top right of the Service Manager screen.
Alternatively, select Configuration -> Discard from the
Service Manager main menu at the top left.
Discarding updates enables you to reset the Service Manager copy of the configuration back
to the current active Enterprise Gateway configuration. Discard is enabled only if
the configuration in Service Manager differs from the active configuration deployed in the
Enterprise Gateway. If the configuration specified in Service Manager differs from the active
configuration deployed in the Enterprise Gateway, a Configuration needs to be Synchronized
message is displayed, and Discard is enabled.
After you discard your updates, Discard is disabled because your configuration is
now the same as the current active Enterprise Gateway configuration. Discard is managed
in the same way as Deploy.
