Visual Administrator tool

where can I download SAP J2EE Visual Administrator tool
thank you

Hi reza,
Sidharth is right in his post that the Visual Administrator is not included in the Java EE 5 edition. And in fact, Visual Administrator will no longer be available in the next version of NetWeaver Application server. It is being replaced by a new, web-based administration tool for online administration of your landscape!
The Java EE 5 Edition also contains this web-based tool with limited functionality.
To use the new admin tool, you need to install it first by executing just a BAT file. Go to <Install_dir>\JP1\JC00\j2ee\NWAdmin directory and execute install.bat. Also, refer to the readme.txt. in the same directory for instructions how to start it.
Another option for online administration of the preview would be the Telnet administrator where you execute shell commands.
If you're more specific with what configuration tasks you need to perform, we might give you detailed steps of how you can do that with the admin tools available in the Java EE 5 Edition package.
Hope that help!

HI,
In Connection Parameters for Mail Server , we have the
Configure User Authentication
If user authentication is required, set the indicator and specify the following:
Simple
CRAM-MD5
Make the following entries:
Specify the user for accessing the server.
Enter the Password and a confirmation
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/23/c093409c663228e10000000a1550b0/content.htm
The plain authentication and the CRAM-MD5 based authentication are supported(CRAM-MD5 support from SP11). The client certificate based authentication is not supported

User Authentication Failed via http BUT not with Visual Administrator !!?

OS : Win 2k3 Server UK * DB : SQL Server 2005
SAP Netweaver 2004s Application Java
Hi All,
Since a couple of days, I have a problem concerning authentication to the java apllication on a SAP Netweaver 2004s.
Using the user Administrator, I CAN logon the Visual Administrator tool, with the same user I tried to logon via http://host:port/nwa without success.
At the beginning, I was thinking about a problem of password then I enabled the emergency user SAP*, the problem was the same. Ok with Visual Administrator but not via http.
Here is two logs found in folder : D:\usr\sap\SID\JC02\j2ee\cluster\server0\log\system\

 I tried to connect http://host:port/sld same problem User Authentication Failed
Do you have an idea for me? Why a user can connect via Visual Administrator and not via the http interface?
Thanks in advance
Yves

Hi,
I found the solution this last week-end.
This behavior let's thinking to a problem of authentication.
But the problem was in SQL, an index was missing in table J2EE_CONFIG, called J2EE_CONFIG_I3

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.
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_erp2005vp/helpdata/en/39/83682615cd4f8197d0612529f2165f/frameset.htm
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.

Visual Administrator in trial verison SAP Portal??

Hi Experts.
I install SAP Netweaver Portal (SDN_Preview_SR_5\CE71SR5), in a windows xp environment, and I cant launch the Visual Administrator, in my directory \usr\sap\CE1\J00\j2ee\ doesn't exist the admin directory, but I find a file go.bat in the directory \usr\sap\CE1\J00\j2ee\JSPM but it launch the Java Support Package Manager.
the question is in the Trial version of composition Environment have the visual administrator tool?
Thanks
Regards

You have downloaded the Composition Environment apparent from the folder name (SDN_Preview_SR_5\5CE71SR). Composition Environement = CE.
I guess you wanted to download the Sneak Preview version of the portal which was available for download. SAP has removed the link to download the same last i checked. So if you have installed CE you wont find visual administration since all is available through NWA.
Thanks,
GLM
please close the thread if your question has been answered

Maximum no of administrator users that can login into Visual Administrator

Hi All,
I am using WAS 640 ( ABAP + JAVA Addin) .. I wanted to know is there any parameter that i can set to limit the number of users (all with administrator rights) who can login into the Visual Administrator tool simultaneously...
Thanx...

Try this
To increase the maximum number of opened connections and/or the time to wait for a new connection you should change the DataSource properties in the Visual Administrator or manually modify of the data-sources.xml file.
The necessary steps in the Visual Administrators are as follows:
a. Open the Visual Administrator and select Server Services JDBC Connector.
b. Select the appropriate DataSource within the Runtimetab on the right.
c. Select the tab named Additional.
d. Set the desired values for the fields Maximum Connectionsand/or Maximum Time to Wait for Connection.
e. After your modification select Save. The Visual Administrator will prompt you for application redeployment. After confirming that, you should be able to get the connection from the database.
thanks

Configure logs Visual Administrator

Hello all,
I have a problem related to the size of log files in XI environment.
I access to transaction al11 in XI environment. Then, I access to the folder /usr/sap/XIP/xxx/j2ee/cluster/server0 and I see that there are a lot of jrfc*.trc files of 0,5 GB of size.
I would like to know where can I define those files and how to manage them in order to optimize space in servers.
Thanks in advance.
Best regards,
Gemma

Can you please have a look, which errors are logged in the trace files. If possible, then fix the errors, this will reduce the amount of lines generated. It is possible that somebody activated a rfc trace, this can be done, where the rfc destination is specified. For example SM59, or visual admin -> server0 -> services -> destinations.
To configure the logging of the files in server0/log have a look at this thread: Re: Log file size in SAP Netweaver
Visual Administrator Tool -> Server -> KERNEL -> LogManager:
DefaultTraceFile_Count -> is the number of files
DefaultTraceFile_Limit -> is the size of the files in bytes
Be aware, that usually the log files are not overwritten. They are archived in ..log/archive. To turn this off you can do this here:
Visual Administrator Tool -> Server -> SERVICES-> Log Configurator -> Tab Properties
Regards, Michael
Edit: oh, too slow

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.

Can't Log into J2EE Engine Visual Administrator

I cannot get logged into our J2EE Engine Visual Administrator on our SAP Portal. After I enter my userid and password (which I know are valid) I get a progress bar which progresses to approx 50%, then errors out with the message: 'Error while connecting. Cannot open connection on host: <IP-address> and port: <port>'
I found this document to troubleshoot the problem:
https://cw.sdn.sap.com/cw/docs/DOC-29070?treeid=DOC-7447
It says the problem is likely that the P4 port is incorrect or the wrong transport layer is selected in my connection string. It suggests using the config tool to find the P4 port and has a diagram showing the port in the local properties. When I go to my config tool, I am missing the Local Properties box. My screen only shows the Global Properties. Is there somewhere else to check the port. I am pretty sure I have the right port because if I try to connect using an incorrect port I get the error message instantly.
The transport layer in my connection string is 'default'.
Can anyone help? Thanks.
Our Visual Administrator version is 6.40 Support Pack 22. The java version is 1.4.2_13.

Hi Kathryn,
P4 port is used for connecting to VA. P4 port will be 5<Inst no>04.
Please check if you have this port while connecting to VA. You can check this port in the index page of your portal.
Can you try restarting the portal instance ??
Also you need not enter userID for logging into VA. By default it uses "administrator" user.
You may also check if the administrator user is locked.
Revert if the issue persists.
Cheers.,
Raghu

Problems while trying to open OBI Administration Tool

Hi everybody,
I’m getting an error while trying to open the OBI Administration Tool. I performed properly the installation with the client installer, and then created the ODBC connection to the OBI Server, which is hosted in a Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5 (64 bits).
The error I’m getting is the next one:
Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Library
Runtime Error!
Program: C:\Program Files\Oracle Business Intelligence Enterprise Edition Plus Client T...
This application has requested the Runtime to terminate it in an unusual way.
Please contact the application's support team for more information.
This is an error that seems to have appeared previously on the forum, but unfortunately I didn’t find any fixing solution. I found posts speaking about cleaning the boot and reinstalling the Visual C++ running components, but they don’t work (at least in my case).
Any idea?
Thanks in advance,
Hibai.

Error in security provider logon stack: no logon to visual administrator

Probably i made a mistake in configuring SAP-J2EE-Engine security provider login modules.
Now i cannot logon to Visual Administrator, it tells me
"Error while connecting
com.sap.engine.services.security.exceptions.BaseLoginException: Access Denied."
Is there a way to reset login module stack from configtool or in some config file?
Many thanks in advance.
Simone Zaffalon

Hi
you can configure your login stack configuration using config tool. Config tool works locally against the server's database, thus no authentication is required.
1. Be sure that your server is not running! (shutdown SAP J2EE processes)
2. Launch config tool ("use default db settings").
3. switch to configuration editor mode (the most-right icon in the icon toolbar)
4. navigate to security-->configurations
Here you find your logon stacks and the login modules contained within them. Click on the "pencil" icon for changing your current configuration.
See the thread below .It will resolve your issue
