Setting up Intelligent Management for dynamic operations

Dynamic operations monitor the middleware server environment and make recommendations or changes based on the data that is observed. To prepare the hosting environment for dynamic operations, federate middleware nodes, create the on demand router (ODR), create middleware servers and dynamic clusters, and deploy applications to your servers and dynamic clusters with an associated service policy.

About this task

To set up the dynamic operations environment, create ODRs, servers and dynamic clusters. These actions set up the application server virtualization portion. You can then deploy your applications and define service policies, to configure application virtualization. The autonomic managers work with these elements to maximize the performance of your environment.

1. Federate middleware nodes.
2. Create and configure ODRs.
3. Create and configure dynamic clusters.
4. Add middleware servers to the environment.
5. Deploy and manage applications through service policies.
