Chapter 10. Administration Tools
In the preceding chapters, we have covered the core concepts of administering WebSphere Application Server (WAS). However, there are a number of other tools available, which we have not yet covered. In this chapter, we will be covering a few of the command-line tools shipped with WAS to help you with problem diagnosis when WebSphere or applications are not running as they should. We will also introduce the IBM Support Assistant, a very powerful WAS support tool, and walk through how to analyze a WAS log file using one of the many ISA add-ons.
In this chapter, we will cover the following topics:
Dumping namespaces
EAR expander
