Admin GUI in v6.1 slow

We're testing version 6.1 and are seeing really slow response times on the admin GUI. It appears to be related to using SSL, which we need on of course. Here's what we're seeing:
+ Some introductory pages -- pages that just display a form, not those that take an action -- take 12 to 19 seconds to display. When we turn off SSL, they snap up in one second.
+ With SSL on on the primary instance of the server, pages fetched via http or https pop up instantly.
+ Our test hardware is a Sun 420R with four CPUs and 4 GB of memory with nothing else running on it; It doesn't seem like the processing demands of SSL should be slowing it down.
Is there some setting we need to set to make the https pages in the GUI perform a little better?
Dave

What's happening on the machine when this poor performance is noted? High CPU use? Memory swapping?
What kind of SSL are you using (e.g. just straigh SSL, or are you doing client-auth, etc)?

Very slow ADMIN gui (/console) and ADMIN mode problems

The admin gui is painfully slow for us for some reason. We're currently running three clusters in on one admin server. There are 55 applications installed spread out pretty evenly on all clusters.
Listing the 10 first deployed applications takes around 50-60s. CPU usage and so forth is fine. This seems to get worse when more applications are added. Some of our other admin servers works fine but they have far less applications installed.
Perhaps not much to go from but has anyone else experienced this ? Possibly cause, solution ?
Note:
version: 10.3
jdk: 1.6_06 (64 bit)
os: solaris
We're also experiencing some serious problems when deploying application, possibly because of the problems with the admin server and that the deployment sometimes just halts (activate changes times out). Servers can all of a sudden be in ADMIN mode, applications can be in ADMIN mode. And servers and/or applications in ADMIN mode is not a good thing since the load-balancers can't handle this situation because the server still listens on the http port while in ADMIN mode. Not sure why this happens but it seems to be connected to when we deploy application, and that part seems to be a hit'n miss thing. It works perfectly sometimes, sometimes it justs halts. A restart of the admin server and then it might work again. Other times it's a restart of all the servers and then the admin server before it works again.
Same as the first question, anyone that has experienced these problems ?

Support has "support patterns" to work through these issues and I definitely recommend opening a case. Various things can contribute such as networking issues causing the clustered communication to not work properly. Thread dumps can also be helpful to see where the time is being spent.

Mail, Server Admin, MySQL running very, very slow

Hi all,
I have this Leopard Server on a Mac Mini and I experience some big bottlenecks on mail services (especially webmail), Server Admin connections (both local and remote), and also connections with mySQL clients (remote). Local MySQL is working fine. It is not the same for mail and Server Admin. They are very slow also for local connections. Any idea? Hint: I'm using a USB-ethernet adapter (from Apple) for my public IP's (I have 2 of them) and I use built-in ethernet for local network. I've switched them, I tried only with the built-in ethernet... no change. Please help... my enthusiasm about this server solution is getting lower and lower... Thank you very much

Have a look at system.log and mailaccess.log for clues to begin with.
Server Admin is usually slow (locally and remotely) when the DNS (forward and reverse) setup is not correct.
Since mySQL seems to have only problems when used remotely, I'd look at bandwidth, routers and switches involved.
Is mail only slow when used via webmail or via any IMAP client?
You're a genius as usually
It seems that I removed my reverse zone accidentally... I didn't even think to look at DNS setting before you told me... Thank you very much

Delegated Admin GUI customization

The Delegated Admin GUI is not always very convenient in its default settings.
For a couple of short examples that annoy me while I'm installing and migrating to this server:
1) the user list is split by 10's of users per page or all users on one page, and 10 accounts per page is the default;
2) I can search for users by their email addresses (and that's often more convenient than guessing/remembering what form of the name was entered), but I always have to select that option from a dropdown list, and be careful to type in the partial address before (or between) the wildcard asterisks, etc.
Is it possible to provide some customization to the GUI - i.e. pre-selected value for "All users on one page", or perhaps better - an increased amount (100 instead of 10); preselect "Search by email" and enter two asterisks as the search field value to easily search for partial addresses (and process a double-asterisk as a single-asterisk - search for everyone - for reverse compatibility), etc?
I believe these types of customizations should be easy to do, is that somehow supported/configured.
The harder types of customizations i thought of (which may include coding) would be:
1) extend/configure the list of attributes to search for (i.e. email doesn't seem to include aliases), and
2) adding another default option - "Search by all of these attributes"

The Delegated Admin GUI is not always very convenient in its default settings. A little bit of background. The Delegated Admin GUI is not designed to be the all encompassing provisioning tool and this is reflected in the lack of UI customisation guides and the limited functionality. The tool caters for the smaller organisation that wants to perform simple account/group/resource creation and deletion and also to big-ISP's that wanted a delegated administration tool for hosted domains.
Medium sized organisations e.g. Universities tend to develop their own provisioning tools (usually for financial reasons).
Larger organisations either have their own provisioning tools or make use of DA's user/account provisioning big brother :

A customisation guide for common settings/modifications is available here:

For a couple of short examples that annoy me while I'm installing and migrating to this server:
1) the user list is split by 10's of users per page or all users on one page, and 10 accounts per page is the default;I was able to increase the limit by changing the maxRows setting in the following file and restarting the webserver instance:
/var/opt/SUNWwbsvr7/https-<hostname>/web-app/<hostname>/da/jsp/users/UserList.jsp
2) I can search for users by their email addresses (and that's often more convenient than guessing/remembering what form of the name was entered), but I always have to select that option from a dropdown list, and be careful to type in the partial address before (or between) the wildcard asterisks, etc.Try using the "advanced search" instead (at the top of the GUI near the log out/help links)
I believe these types of customizations should be easy to do, is that somehow supported/configured.You can make the customizations, the down side is that when you apply a DA patch they will be over-written. From memory they were planning on addressing this limitation at some stage but it appears to have dropped off the developers "radar".
1) extend/configure the list of attributes to search for (i.e. email doesn't seem to include aliases), and It is supposed to : RFE#6296082 - "Need to provide ability to search for email alias in delegated admin" was implemented several years ago but the search as you said doesn't seem to include mailalternateaddress/mailequivalentaddress. You will need to log a support case to get this investigated further.
2) adding another default option - "Search by all of these attributes"Refer to the advanced search.

"apex/apex" URL problem with accessing admin GUI

Hi,
I've been searching the forums for answers to why I can't access my XE admin GUI, including a post today on this forum discussing a 404 error, but with no success so far. I've followed all the suggestions but to no avail. THIS WAS WORKING fine up until recently which is very frustrating.
The symptom is, when I try load the admin page using the following URL...
http://127.0.0.1:8080/apex OR http://my_machine_hostname:8080/apex
... the URL gets redirected to http://127.0.0.1:8080/apex/apex and the page won't load.
I've tried an ./oracle-xe force-reload to no avail and when I check for the tns listener all looks fine as follows:

Server Admin GUI not displaying complete information

Recently, the Server Admin GUI stopped displaying complete information for one of our servers. It works fine for the other.
All servers are set up very much the same, other than one is an Xserve and one is a G5 tower. The one giving the grief is the G5 tower.
Server Admin is version 10.4.7 and was working fine until a few days ago.
When I click on the computer name (or IP) in the "Computers and Services" list, then look at any of the tabs > "Overview" "Logs" "System" "Graphs" or "Update" no information is retrieved. With the exception of Hard Drive capacity.
All other services (Web, VPN, Mail) report all info without problems.
Weird, hey? Any thoughts appreciated.

Well it pretty easy. I've taken out the code that is unused so you can see what is going on.
import javax.swing.* ;
public class Shareddilog extends JDialog
public static void main(String[] args)
Shareddilog s=new Shareddilog();
s.show();
}This is the only code that is executed in your program. It created a JDialog and then shows it. What you want to do, I imagine, is to put all the GUI stuff in your constructor and make sure you call pack() on it before you are done.

After "wadm pull-config" the Admin gui still shows deployment pending

After doing a manual edit of my webserver 7.0u3 instance config files I run wadm with the pull-config subcommand. After the command successfully completes I go into the admin gui and it shows that I have a deployment pending. Why is this? Doesn't this command sync the instance config with the config-store?

pull-config command pulls the configuration from the node to the config-store and then the user is supposed to deploy the configuration using deploy-config command to propagate those changes to the other instances if any.
pull-config information from Web Server CLI reference:

JES3 Delegated Admin (gui)

If anyone has experience with the GUI I/F, I'd like to know how long it takes to do the lookups and load an organization's user base. The tests I've run take about 104 secs for less than 2K users and seems unreasonable. Issue applies to access manager also.....
Thanks.
(Hope this is correct forum for this question)

I mean, we have also this problem:
Hello,
We have the same problem.
The only way to quickly find an user is to do an
"Advanced Search" just after you log into DA.
If you load your domain by clicking on it, it's very
slow.
But the advanced search is very fast.
When you create an user it's the same problem, it
takes 5 minutes to create an user.
I think we have to wait an update because the new DA
is not finished and reliable to manage your domain.
The best way for the moment is the CLI. If you want
beautiful interface and poor performance look at
Exchange !

Sg200-50 admin GUI stuck at loading 70%

Hello,
Has anyone had this issue? I access the GUI through web browser and enter my credentials successfully, but then it just gets stuck on loading at 70% and gets nowhere.
I tried two different computers, and IE and Chrome browsers. Running windows 7 64-bit machines, IE 10, Chrome 37.0.2062.120 m
Any suggestions? Telnet disabled by default it seems.
Thanks

Good Morning mkleinhaus,
What firmware are you running?
You could try to reset the switch, as long as you have backed up your configuration
somewhere. (Or if you don't care about losing the current settings on the switch)
If you are entering the credentials of a user account you created, try the default "admin"
user account. The login credentials are cisco as the username and cisco for the password.
Here is a link to the Quick Start guide regarding any more questions you may have:
http://www.cisco.com/c/dam/en/us/td/docs/switches/lan/csbss/sf20x_sg20x/quick_start/guide/ML/78-19596-01.pdf
Please let me know if this helps, and if you have any other questions.
Thanks,
Rocket

Server Admin GUI weird behavior

SLS 10.7 & Server Admin 10.6.5
Very strange GUI issue when I run Server Admin on my MBP and connect to my local SLS running on a Mac Mini. The first line of every window is half-cut off (see image). It is fine when I run it directly on the Server. Any ideas anyone?

Count me in, as well. I've tried connecting from the server itself, as well as another local machine. I can't enter a bogus serial because it's not even recognizing the server... the serial boxes are all greyed out.
(Server 10.4.10)
Please help!

Lost iPlanet admin GUI login password

Hi,
I am trying to reset/recover the admin password for the iPlanet server.
The previous admin has left the firm & nobody knows the admin password for the iPlanet server.
The iplanet version is 6 & its on Solaris-9 server.
The default combination of admin/admin doesnt work.
I will really appreciate if somebody can help me recover the lost password or may be set a new admin password. Is there any standard procedure.
!Thanks in advance
Anand

this is how I would do..
cd INSTALL_ROOT (where web server is installed )
./bin/https/bin/htpasswd -c https-admserv/config/admpw admin
[ now you will be asked to give the new password. enter this new password in the command line. ]
hope this helps

3850 WLC Admin GUI Authentiaction with AAA

Hi all. I'm making myself a little nutty this morning. I've had a 3850 with the WLC function enabled in my lab for quite some time. Just bumped it to 03.07.00E and I'm having a devil of a time getting in to the Wireless GUI - particularly when I have 'ip http authentication aaa' enabled. I can still access the wired gui using my AAA setup just fine.
Up until going to 3.07, I could get in to the wired or wireless GUI using AAA with no issues.
So I know it's something in my aaa setup that needs to be tweaked - either on the switch side or somewhere inside my ACS setup. Anyone run in to this yet? And if so, any pointers?
Thanks!

Hi Viten,
You're right - this isn't related to my problem. And we've successfully done 'split' authentication where CLI uses AAA and Web uses local. But it's a little cumbersome to set up, and sort of silly to do when there's a centralized AAA system available.
Prior to 3.07, centralized AAA authentication for CLI and Web (for both the switch GUI and the wireless GUI) worked as expected for us.
3.07 has introduced a 'Prime' style web page, with a 'Domain' choice for wireless or wired. Choosing Wired as the domain causes the device to ask for a traditional Level 15 account, (as an extra set of prompts outside the 'Prime' style uname/password window) and after entering proper AAA credentials, you get the switch configuration GUI as expected.
However, when you chose Wireless as the Domain, you can only enter a uname/pwd in the 'Prime' style authentication window. Using the same AAA credentials as always, the device generates an authentication failure due to bad username/password. An error in the python wnweb process is also generated in the switch logs.
I've looked at my ACS logs - username/pwd is fine, and authentication is passing as expected in the ACS system. The switch doesn't seem to be processing the returned TACACS+ authentication info correctly.

It's not really compiled. I only translated original makefile to pkgbuild form and got rid of the unnecessary subdirs.

Safari 5 seems to have slowed the OS for my Admin user account

After installing Safari 5 (now 5.0.2), and after a few Safari hangs and force quits, my OS for my Admin user account has become slow. Opening folders and seeing the contents is slow; moving small documents from folder to folder is very slow; cutting and pasting text in a MS Word document sometimes takes two or three tries, as the text highlighting cursor function has slowed. (Interestingly, Safari's basic click and pageload functions seem to work fairly normally, but with the same highlighting and copy/paste slowness that affects all other programs. Also, my mouse pointer moves quickly as per normal.)
However, I created a new user account as a test comparison and found that the new user account is NOT slow. It works perfectly fine.
Any thoughts on what I should do? Is my original Admin account corrupted? Is it possible to simply move my personal files (Word docs, iTunes songs, bookmarks) to the new user account and then delete my original Administrator account?
What should I do? Thanks everyone.

Well, it was worth a shot.
How full is your hard drive? Always a good starting point for diagnosing slowdowns.
Sometimes running periodic maintenance scripts helps, because it cleans some caches that a Safari reset won't. The scripts are supposed to run automatically in the wee hours of the morning when most people are computing, but the problem is that they only run if the computer is on and not sleeping. Not too realistic.
This article in an excellent series of "keep the Apple sweet" articles talks about the scripts and how to run them manually:
http://thexlab.com/faqs/maintscripts.html
They are less important in later incarnations of Mac OSX as some o the tasks they do were shifted to start-up, but doing them is worth trying.
Also use Activity Monitor to check for a runaway background process. It's possible that this could affect only one user account. If you've not used Activity Monitor before, make sure you change its "Show" option from the default of "My Processes" to "All Processes" or you might miss some nasty troublemakers. Also click in the "%CPU" column header to sort by processor usage. With no user apps running, (basically an idling computer) no single process should demand more than ~5 percent of the processor. Let AM display for a few minutes while you watch it, as some processes toggle back and forth as they activate.
Running any anti-virus software? Most does more Mac-harm than Mac-good.
Keep us posted!
