About the Web Management Console

The Web Management Console (WMC) is a web-based management tool that allows you to:

  • Manage the Integration Appliance

  • Manage integration projects

  • Monitor integration projects

You can access the same Integration Appliance from multiple WMCs. However, each WMC can only monitor and manage one Integration Appliance at a time. The tasks you can complete in the WMC depend on the user account you log in with. The WMC has built-in groups, which you can use to further control access to the Integration Appliance. Alternatively, you can specify an LDAP server to manage user and group authentication and authorization.

When you log into an Integration Appliance through the WMC, the Dashboard appears. The Dashboard provides multiple snapshot views of project configurations and jobs, a resource utilization graph, a list of unresolved critical system errors, and an overall project configuration summary. The Dashboard also allows you to search for orchestration jobs by job key. The Search box is located in the Results section of the dashboard.

The WMC displays the name of the current user as well as the date and timestamp set on the Integration Appliance. This date and timestamp do not necessarily represent the local date and time. For example, the Integration Appliance is set to GMT; however, you can log on to this Integration Appliance from a WMC in San Francisco, CA, which is in the PST time zone. Use the Command Line Interface (CLI) to modify the time zone of the Integration Appliance.
