Administering EntireX Broker using Command Central

Software AG Command Central is a tool that release managers, infrastructure engineers, system administrators, and operators can use to perform administrative tasks from a single location. Command Central can assist with the following configuration, management, and monitoring tasks:

  • Infrastructure engineers can see at a glance which products and fixes are installed, where they are installed, and compare installations to find discrepancies.

  • System administrators can configure environments by using a single web user interface or command-line tool. Maintenance involves minimum effort and risk.

  • Release managers can prepare and deploy changes to multiple servers using command-line scripting for simpler, safer lifecycle management.

  • Operators can monitor server status and health, as well as start and stop servers from a single location. They can also configure alerts to be sent to them in case of unplanned outages.

Note:
Command Central is available for Broker instances running on UNIX and Windows platforms.

For EntireX, you can use Command Central to perform the following operations on EntireX Broker:

  • View the number of EntireX Brokers running in each environment of your IT landscape

  • View the versions of EntireX Brokers

  • Monitor EntireX Broker installations

  • Monitor runtime status, KPIs (key performance indicators), and alerts of EntireX Broker instances

  • Start, stop, and restart EntireX Broker

Note:
Software AG Platform Manager (installed by default with Command Central) uses EntireX Broker Admin to obtain information about EntireX Brokers, so EntireX Broker Admin must be running if you want to administer EntireX Brokers through Command Central.
