4.1. Introduction to the Mobicents Management Console

Once the JAIN SLEE Server is running, you can access the management console by pointing your browser to http://localhost:8080/management-console/. If you are working with a remote machine, replace localhost with the name of the remote machine's host, and 8080 with the correct port.
The Management Console screen has the following components:
  • The Main Menu, on the left.
  • The Current View, on the right.
  • The Log Console, on the bottom.
The JAIN SLEE Server Management Console, initial view
New views my be selected by clicking on the Main Menu items. The Log Console displays important and relevant notifications when operations are executed, such as error and status messages.
The initial management console view, which can also be accessed by clicking on SLEE at the top of the Main Menu, displays a status message indicating whether the Management Console is currently running or not, and provides controls to start, stop, and shut down the JAIN SLEE Server.
Deployable Units
This view can be selected by clicking on Deployable Units from the Main Menu, and shows a list of all deployable units that can be deployed with the JAIN SLEE Server.
The Deployable Units view
A tab bar at the top of the view allows one to browse, search for, and install deployable units.
Components
The next view on the Main Menu is the Components view, which displays a list of component types, such as services, SBBs, resource adapters, etc., and their current count. Clicking on a component type will cause the management console to show a list of components for that type. From there, you can click on the different components to see their details.
The Components view
Services
The Services view shows the list of available services, their state, whether ACTIVE or INACTIVE, and all currently possible actions for that resource adapter, such as activate, deactivate or remove.
The Services view
The tab bar at the top of the Services view also allows you to control the usage parameters of services.
Resource Adapters
Choosing Resources from the Main Menu will put the currently-deployed resource adapters in view. There, you can see their name, type, vendor and version. Clicking on one of the resource adapters will provide further information such as the name of the deployable unit, its state, whether ACTIVE or INACTIVE, and the currently possible actions for specific services, such as activating, deactivating, or removing them.
The Resources view
Activity Contexts
The Activity Contexts view can be displayed by clicking on Activities from the Main Menu, and shows the current activity contexts. The TTL field shows how much time the activity can remain idle before being marked for garbage collection.
