About this Guide
This guide is for the administrator of a webMethods Integration Server. It provides an overview of how the server operates and explains common administrative tasks such as starting and stopping the server, configuring the server, setting up user accounts and security, and managing packages and services.
Note:
This guide describes features and functionality that may or may not be available with your licensed version of webMethods Integration Server. For information about the licensed components for your installation, see the Settings > License page in the Integration Server Administrator.
Integration Server provides a subset of the functionality available in webMethods Microservices Runtime. If your webMethods Integration Server is equipped with a Microservices Runtime license, you can use features and functionality available in Microservices Runtime. For more information about Microservices Runtime, see Developing Microservices with webMethods Microservices Runtime.
Unlike Integration Server, Microservices Runtime does not allow multiple instances, does not make use of OSGi, and does not use the Java Service Wrapper. Consequently, the directory structures of Integration Server and Microservices Runtime are different and some configuration differences exist due to the fact that Microservices Runtime does not use the Java Service Wrapper for passing properties to Microservices Runtime.
When reviewing the webMethods Integration Server Administrator’s Guide, keep in mind that references to Integration Server_directory /instances/instanceName for Integration Server correspond to the Integration Server_directory in Microservices Runtime. Differences between Integration Server and Microservices Runtime are noted in the webMethods Integration Server Administrator’s Guide when they exist.
Note:
The directory and configuration differences apply to a Microservices Runtime only. That is, an Integration Server equipped with an Microservices Runtime license and an Integration Server without the Microservices Runtime license have the same directory structure, use OSGi, and makes use of the Java Service Wrapper.
