Screenshots of ChainBuilder ESB Admin Console
Manage your Enterprise Service Bus through the ChainBuilder ESB Console web interface by performing remote administration, management and control on run-time JBI components and other ChainBuilder ESB server modules. The web interface provides access to perform management tasks, like install components, deploy applications and view server runtime log files. Refer to the Admin Console Guide for a detailed description of this web interface.
Menu 1: Manage Components
Use the web interface to install, uninstall, start, stop or shutdown JBI-complaint components within the ESB framework. The set of components managed through this interface can include any ChainBuilder created component and/or any custom JBI-compliant component developed by end developer.
Menu 2: Deploy Service Assemblies
Within the JBI framework, a component and its configuration files make up a Service Unit. A group of Service Units makes up an application or "Service Assembly". IT managers can deploy, undeploy, start, stop and shutdown Service Assemblies within their ESB framework through the ChainBuilder ESB Console.
Menu 3: View Endpoints
The Administration Console has been enhanced to provide control at the endpoint level. This allows the user to start and stop individual endpoints within a component as well as modify configuration settings in a component directly on the server without having to redeploy the Assembly.
Menu 4: View Statistics
Statistical information is pulled from the JBI container using JMX (Java Management Extension) and displayed within the ChainBuilder ESB Console. Information includes the count of messages in and out of each components and also the throughput (rate) of messages going through the ESB.
Menu 5: View Server Logs
Access to Server logs for Admin Console Server and ChainBuilder ESB Runtime Server allows for remote troubleshooting of server issues.
Menu 6: View ChainBuilder Service Layer (CCSL) Error Database
The ChainBuilder Service Layer is an optional (yet valuable) feature set that adds critical error handling and UPoC services to the JBI container. ChainBuilder ships with an embedded open Source Apache Derby database as the Error Database within the CCSL, but any relational database can be used. Easy access to the content of the error database is available through the ChainBuilder ESB Console.
