The page allows you to create a new machine.

If the machine you are creating will run on UNIX, select the appropriate value for Machine OS. You will be able to configure additional properties after you have created the machine.

Configuration Options

Name Description
Listen Address

The host name or IP address where Node Manager listens for connection requests.

MBean Attribute:
NodeManagerMBean.ListenAddress

Secure value: 127.0.0.1

Listen Port

The port number where Node Manager listens for connection requests.

MBean Attribute:
NodeManagerMBean.ListenPort

Minimum value: 1

Maximum value: 65534

Debug Enabled

Specifies whether communication with this Node Manager needs to be debugged. When enabled, Node Manager provides more information about request processing. This information is sent to the log of the server making requests to Node Manager.

MBean Attribute:
NodeManagerMBean.DebugEnabled

Type

Returns the node manager type.

MBean Attribute:
NodeManagerMBean.NMType

Changes take effect after you redeploy the module or restart the server.

Shell Command

Returns the local command line to use when invoking SSH or RSH node manager functions.

MBean Attribute:
NodeManagerMBean.ShellCommand

Changes take effect after you redeploy the module or restart the server.

Node Manager Home

Returns the node manager home directory that will be used to substitute for the shell command template

MBean Attribute:
NodeManagerMBean.NodeManagerHome

Changes take effect after you redeploy the module or restart the server.

Adapter

Gets the node manager client adapter name_version when using a VMM adapter to connect to OVM or other VMM adapter providers

MBean Attribute:
NodeManagerMBean.Adapter

Changes take effect after you redeploy the module or restart the server.

User

The Node Manager client user name used to connect to the underlying service to which the client delegates operations.

MBean Attribute:
NodeManagerMBean.UserName

Password

The password used by a Node Manager client to connect to the underlying service to which the Node Manager client delegates operations.

When you get the value of this attribute, WebLogic Server does the following:

  1. Retrieves the value of the PasswordEncrypted attribute.

  2. Decrypts the value and returns the unencrypted password as a String.

When you set the value of this attribute, WebLogic Server does the following:

  1. Encrypts the value.

  2. Sets the value of the PasswordEncrypted attribute to the encrypted value.

Caution: Using the (Password) attribute is a potential security risk because the String object (which contains the unencrypted password), remains in the JVM's memory until garbage collection removes it and the memory is reallocated. Depending on how memory is allocated in the JVM, a significant amount of time could pass before this unencrypted data is removed from memory. Therefore, you should use the PasswordEncrypted() attribute instead.

MBean Attribute:
NodeManagerMBean.Password
