This section describes how to use the My webMethods Define Environments page to configure and manage an Optimize environment. It also describes how to validate and deploy configuration settings to the logical servers that are required for using Optimize for Process and Optimize for Infrastructure environments. Also, it describes how to plan and implement Analytic Engine clustering.

The My webMethods Define Environments page enables you to configure, modify, and view the status of Optimize environments. If there are existing Optimize environments defined within your system, this page shows them and their status. Buttons to the right of each listed environment enable you to edit, copy, or deploy these existing environments and other controls enable you to create new environments.

Note that there are several modes for the My webMethods Define Environments page. The primary mode that is displayed when you first activate the page shows all currently configured environments for your system. If you click on an environment, the Edit Environment mode is activated, which displays the Environment Name and a Description in the Environment Information area, and details about the logical servers configured for that environment in the Environment Configuration area. The Environment Configuration pane contains a series of tabs that enable you to configure, validate, and deploy the logical servers that make up an Optimize configuration.
