Hi Rev,
1> Your Visual admin tool is located in folder
"C:\usr\sap\CE1\JC00\j2ee\admin".
JSPM is another tool used for upgrade or appling *.SDA or *.SCA files.
2> There is also web based tool called NetWeaverAdministrator located under alias http://<hostname>:<port no.>/nwa .
3> Also set the path for JAVA_HOME in environment variable.
4> If the locked account is the only administrators account, follow the instructions in note 669848.
5> If you no longer connect to the Visual admin it is better change the password of the user j2ee_admin as mentioned bellow
You have to change the J2EE Engine administrator password in the secure store as follows:
a. Start the Config Tool by executing the /usr/sap/<SID>/<Instance name>/j2ee/configtool/configtool script file.
b. Select secure store.
c. Select the admin/password/<SID> entry.
d. Enter the J2EE Engine administrator user new password in the Value field and choose Add.
e. Choose File -> Apply to save the data.
f. Restart the J2EE Engine

Visual admin tool&configer tool

whta is main difference of visual admin tool&configer tool

Hi Raghava,
This is a post by some gentleman, I tried figuring out the thread but could not succeed.
VISUAL ADMINISTRATOR
The J2EE Engine Visual Administrator is a graphical user interface (GUI) that enables administration of the whole cluster, all cluster elements, and all modules running on them. It provides remote monitoring and management of managers, services, libraries, and interfaces working on each element in a single GUI
Visual Administrator includes functions for:
a) Obtaining general information about a service, manager, interface, or library (for example, its name, group, and so on).
b) Logging on to the J2EE Engine via the Visual Administrator tool
c) Administrating and changing the properties either specific or common for each service or manager
d) Configuring the global properties
e) Runtime administration and control.
Read out more about its features on VISUAL ADMINISTRATOR.

CONFIG TOOL :-
The Config Tool enables offline configuration of the J2EE Engine cluster elements. It is XML-based and allows exporting the system configuration for later use.
When you run the J2EE Engine Config Tool via a GUI or text-only interface, it connects to the database and scans the server configuration. The information provided is passed to the corresponding interface that is used for configuration.
Each change you can perform corresponds to a particular task in the Batch Config tool.
All modifications made using the J2EE Engine Config Tool can be exported to an XML file for later use.
two types:-
a) GUI Config tool :- The J2EE Engine GUI Config Tool enables offline configuration of J2EE Engine cluster elements concerning serviceu2019s and manageru2019s properties, adding new server processes, changing Java parameters, exporting the system configuration to an XML file, and so on.
After installing the SAP Web AS Java, a configtool directory is created, containing a configtool script file. Double clicking on this file starts the Config Tool.
b) Text Only Config tool:- The text-only Config Tool enables you configuration of J2EE Engine cluster elements using a text-only based interface. It enables you to change the cluster element properties, JVM settings, add new elements, export the system configuration to an XML file, and so on.
After installing SAP Web AS Java, a configtool directory is created under <SAP_install_dir>/<system_name>/<instance_name>/j2ee, containing a consoleconfig script file. Double clicking on this file starts the text-only Config Tool.

Hi,

Check some VC roles and assign those roles for perticular users for full and read only.

Virsa application components not found in Visual Admin tool (GRC AC 5.3)

Hi experts,
I have this weird issue. I was trying to run the background job to synch the backend roles, users and profiles in CC. But when I checked the background job deamon through this link
http://209.207.245.71:50000/sap/CCADStatus.jsp , the screen was blink.
I searched and found this note #999785.
When I looked for the " virsa/ccxsysbgear application" through the Visual Administrator, I could not find any of the Virsa components application in our GRC server under this path:
Visual Admin --> cluster tab --> deploy folder --> virsa/* (all components)
We have AE, FF configured and running in our development server. Now I am configuring the CC and found all the virsa application services are missing.
We are implemented GRC Access control 5.3 . Any ideas how to get these components deployed and running in the Visual Admin tool??
Some of the sample deployed components are
1. virsa/ccxsysbgear application '
2. virsa/ccume
3. virsa/AEume
4. virsa/ccxsysbher etc
Greatly appreciate your help!
Thanks
Siri

I found these files with the new name.. There is no virsa tag for these files.

J2EE Visual Admin tool

Hi fellow XI'ers,
I want to install J2EE Visual Admin tool on my laptop, but all information I can find is that I have to go to C drive \usr\sap\C11\JC00\j2ee\admin and run go.bat but...this folder does not exists on my laptop...I guess I have to install locally Netweaver or WAS? And where do I find installation files?
Best Regards,
Margaret

hi,
no:)
all you have to do is to copy the folder:
usr\sap\C11\JC00\j2ee\admin
to your laptop and you can use it
maybe you just have to change one path
in one of he files but try with copying first

J2EE Visual Admin Tool stops at 99%

Hello everyone,
I have a problem with the Visual Admintool for the J2EE of an EP 6.0 SPS12 Installation on W2k. The tool worked properly before I installed TREX 6.1.
After I connect sucessfully with the admin tool it runs slowly up to 99% and stops here. The Tree of dispatcher and his services are viewable but I cannot expand the server node.
The TREX is running fine, all services are green. The Portal is available and the MMC of Portal shows all green (all services/intances started successfully). I can login and administrate the portal. But I can't configure the TREX for the portal because I can't access the Servernode in Visual Admin.
I checked the logs for the admin tool but there are no errors. The info in admin tool shows no error too. Maybe some additional traces and logs must be first activated.
On the system is a second EP and TREX running but I stopped all other applications, restarted the portal and tried to connect with visual Admin. It stops again at 99%.
Saw some threads with a solution to modify the hosts file or change the heap size of J2EE but no one confirmed that this has helped.
Does someone has an idea what I could check next?
Regards
Alex

Hello Praveen,
thanks for your hint. I checked the note which is very old and only for release 6.20 (I'm on 6.40). I found a similar error in my logs but this error was produced by a failed login and was not releted to my problem. I checked again my logs after but could not find any helpful entry here.
Some more ideas? Looks like a candidate for a OSS message to SAP again.

Alex

Error while starting Visual Admin

Hi,
I am stuck again at another problem. before installing SAP XI, i was setting configurations in visual admin. As per the guide, i set the initial and maximum connections in the frame server-services-JDBC connector. After setting the configurations, i stopped the JDBC connector service. when i again tried to start, it got stuck.
Now, even after the restart of J2EE instance, Visual Admin is not connecting to the server node and showing exception " Java.lang.NullPointerException".
Is it possible to restore the previous state of Visual Admin?
Thanks and Regards,
Nitin.

Did you try going to the Configtool and setting it up. You can locate this by going to /usr/sap/SVA/DVEBMGS00/j2ee/configtool/configtool.bat
This is the place where you can set the parameters etc. and restore J2EE Server

Dispatcher service is yellow and unable to start visual admin.

Hello all:
Here is my new problem.
Everything was going fine untill I finished the post installation activites on PI7.0. I am not sure if I missed any step or not.
After the changes I stopped the instance and restarted it and the "Disp+word.exe" is yellow with the message <b>"Running, Message Server connection ok, Dialog Queue time: J2EE:Some Processes running".</b>
I can't connect to Visual admin. Getting an error when hit connect "<b>unable to loockup connection default, http:
sapinst001:8010/msgserver/text/logon returned empty list of conneciton parameters"</b>
Check the log files and here are some info from them:
Dev_Server0:
Thr 1644] *** WARNING => INFO: Unknown property [instance.box.number=PI7DVEBMGS00sapinst001] [jstartxx.c   841]
[Thr 1644] *** WARNING => INFO: Unknown property [instance.en.host=sapinst001] [jstartxx.c   841]
[Thr 1644] *** WARNING => INFO: Unknown property [instance.en.port=3201] [jstartxx.c   841]
[Thr 1644] *** WARNING => INFO: Unknown property [instance.system.id=0] [jstartxx.c   841]
Can you please help me with this? I need to finish this install by Monday.
Regards,
N.S

It's important to understand if the dispatcher is not running or just the server is not running: try to look to the log files
/usr/sap/<SID>/DVEBMGS<nr>/work/dispatcher
/usr/sap/<SID>/DVEBMGS<nr>/work/server0
and
/usr/sap/<SID>/DVEBMGS<nr>/j2ee/cluster/server0/log/defaultTrace.trc
You should find the error that prevent the java application to start.
The more common reason are the inability to detect the path of JRE or some parameter wrong in the configtool

Visual admin tool not working

hii guys,
in my netweaver system visula admin tool not working .when ever im trying to connect with user id and password its showing like this.how can i solve this issue.plz help me

Hi,
Try to login to system info page with administrator or j2ee_admin for java and dual stack respectively to check if the password is correct.
If the password is incorrect, then check if you have any alternate admin ID. Change the administrator or j2ee_admin password, then try to login with the new password. Change the password of SDM and securestore to the new one.
If this is not the case, then check the log files in visual admin directory. Please post the same.
Cheers...,
Raghu

Rights & authorizations on the Visual admin tool SP13

if some one can tell me if rights and authorizations can be managed around the Visual administrator tool in order to manage accesses and users use and this tool.
Thanks in advance,
Eric.

Hi Daniel,
yes agree with you and thank; but what i want to know is if i can assign other "group" (rights and / or authorizations) to some users in order to avoid access to this tool to users except in visualisation that means without possibility of modify items.
