To Create a Node
A node represents a host on which the GlassFish Server software is
installed. A node must exist for every host on which GlassFish Server
instances reside.
- In the navigation tree, select the Nodes node.
The Nodes page opens.
- On the Nodes page, click New.
The New Node page opens.
- In the Name field, type your choice of name for the node.
- From the Type drop-down list, select the type of the node to
create.
- To create a node supports communication over secure shell (SSH), select SSH.
- To create a node that does not support remote communication, select CONFIG.
- In the Node Host field, type the name of the host that
the node represents.
The name of the host must be specified. Otherwise, an error occurs.
- 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.
- 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/.
- 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.
- In the SSH Port field, type the port to use for SSH
connections to this node's host.
- In the User Name field, type the name of the user that
is to run the process for connecting to this node's host through
SSH.
- In the Key File field, type the absolute path to the SSH
private key file for user that the User Name option specifies.
Note - GlassFish Server also supports password authentication through the AS_ADMIN_SSHPASSWORD entry in the
password file. The password file is specified in the --paswordfile option of the
Broken Link (Target ID: ASADMIN-1M) utility.
- Click Save.
