To Edit a Node

Editing a node updates configuration data of a GlassFish Server node. Editing a node also enables you to change the type of the node from CONFIG to SSH to enable SSH communication for the node.

If you change the type of the node from CONFIG to SSH , default values are applied if any of the following fields is left empty:

  1. In the navigation tree, expand the Nodes node.
  2. From the list of nodes, select the node that you are editing.

    The Edit Node page opens.

  3. From the Type drop-down list, select the type of the updated node.
  4. In the Node Host field, type the name of the host that the updated node is to represent.

    Whether this field is mandatory depends on the type of the node:

  5. In the Node Directory field, type the path to the directory that is to contain GlassFish Server instances that are created on the node.

    If you type a relative path, the path is relative to the as-install directory, where as-install is the base installation directory of the GlassFish Server software on the host.

  6. In the Installation Directory field, type the full path to the parent of the base installation directory of the GlassFish Server software on the host, for example, /export/glassfish3/.
  7. To force the node to be created in the configuration of the domain administration server (DAS) even if validation of the node's parameters fails, enable the Force option.
  8. In the SSH Port field, type the port to use for SSH connections to this node's host.

    If you change the type of the node from CONFIG to SSH and leave this field empty, the SSH Port option is set to 22.

  9. In the SSH User Name field, type the name of the user on this node's host that is to run the process for connecting to the host through SSH.

    If you change the type of the node from CONFIG to SSH and leave this field empty, the SSH User Name option is set to the user that is running the DAS process.

  10. Specify how the SSH user will be authenticated when logging in to this node's host.
  11. Click Save.
