Viewing integration servers that are connected to an IBM App Connect Dashboard

Use an IBM® App Connect Dashboard to view managed integration servers, or independent integration servers.

1. In the IBM App Connect Dashboard, click the Dashboard icon to go to the Dashboard view.

You can view any of the following integration servers:

• Local or remote managed integration servers on IBM App Connect Enterprise.
• Local or remote independent integration servers on IBM App Connect Enterprise.
• Integration servers that are connected to the IBM App Connect Dashboard by a switch server.

View a connection in the IBM App Connect Dashboard by completing one of the following steps:

2. Optional: Local or remote managed integration server on IBM App Connect Enterprise. View a local or a remote managed integration server by completing the following steps:
   1. In the Dashboard view, click Nodes. Any local or remote integration nodes that are connected to the IBM App Connect Dashboard, and that your account is authorized to view, are displayed.
      The tile for each integration node contains the following information:

      • The name of the integration node.
      • The text "Node" to confirm that the connection is to an integration node.
      • The URL of the connection. For example, http://localhost:4414.

      You can search for a specific integration node by typing the name of the integration node into the Search field and pressing Enter. If an integration node with the specified name is connected to the IBM App Connect Dashboard, it is highlighted in the Dashboard view.
      For more information about connection names, see Creating connections in an IBM App Connect Dashboard.
   2. View the managed integration server by accessing the menu in the connection tile for the integration node. Click the Open List of Options icon in the tile of an integration node. Then, click Open in the menu.
      If the integration node has any managed integration servers, they are displayed in the Dashboard view.

      The tile for each managed integration server contains the following information:

      • The name of the managed integration server.
      • The text "Server" to confirm that the tile is for an integration server.
      • The status of the managed integration server is shown as Started or Stopped.
      You can search for a specific managed integration server by typing the name or part of the name of the integration server into the Search field and pressing Enter. If a managed integration server with the specified name exists on the integration node, it is highlighted in the Dashboard view.

      Alternatively, you can view manged integration servers by accessing the Servers tab, as described in step 3.

3. Optional: You can view local or remote independent integration servers, and local or remote managed integration servers by accessing the Servers tab. You can also view integration servers that are connected to the IBM App Connect Dashboard by a switch. View integration servers by completing the following steps:
   1. In the Dashboard view, click Servers. Integration servers that your account is authorized to view, are displayed. You can view local or remote independent integration servers, and local or remote managed integration servers. If you have a connection to a switch, the Servers view shows integration servers that are connected at the other side of that switch server.
      A tile for an independent integration server differs from a tile for a managed integration server. It includes the URL. The following information is included on the tile of an independent integration server:

      • The name of the work directory for the integration server. If you specified a name for the independent integration server when you created it, the name is shown instead of the work directory.
      • The text "Server" to confirm that the connection is to an integration server.
      • The URL of the connection. For example, http://localhost:7700.

      The tile for an integration server that is connected to the IBM App Connect Dashboard by a switch also contain the following details:

      • If the server is replicated, the number of replications are shown.
      • The text "connected via: <name of switch server>"

      You can search for a specific independent integration server by typing the name of the work directory for the integration server. If you specified a name when you created the independent integration server, you can search by typing the name of the integration server. If an independent integration server with the specified work directory or name is connected to the IBM App Connect Dashboard, it is highlighted in the Dashboard view.
