• Analyze appropriate design considerations when architecting topologies to achieve security, scalability, performance and fault tolerance.

• Demonstrate an understanding of how requests traverse various WebSphere Application Server topologies.

• Demonstrate an understanding of the administration activities for a network deployment cell including the flexible management components.

• Identify and describe the components of the WebSphere Application Server Liberty profile.

2. Product Installation, Configuration and Maintenance

• Demonstrate an understanding of the IBM Installation Manager and IBM Packaging Utility and its role in installing, configuring, and maintaining WebSphere application servers and components both locally and remotely.

• Perform a silent installation process for WebSphere Application Server and fix pack installations.

• Perform pre and post-installation verification.

• Troubleshoot installation problems.

• Create and manage Full and Liberty profiles.

• Manage nodes in a WebSphere topology, for example, managed, unmanaged nodes, flexible management and network deployment cell.

• Backup and restore configuration including the use of checkpoints.

3. Application Management (Assembly, Deployment and Configuration)

• Explain the structure of enterprise applications, web applications, and business level applications.

• Deploy applications to a WebSphere Application Server environment.

• Configure resources, for example, data sources, JNDI, class paths, J2C providers, as required by an application.

• Use the IBM Rational Application Developer for WebSphere Software or the IBM WebSphere Application Server Developer Tools for Eclipse to examine and manipulate applications.

• Demonstrate an understanding of the administrative tasks required to take an application deployed to the Liberty profile and deploy it in a WebSphere Application Server Network Deployment environment.

4. Administrative Tools

• Illustrate the usage of the Integrated Solutions Console (ISC) and its various tools (e.g., command assistance, runtime messages).

• Use the standard set of command line administrative tools such as wsadmin, profile management and plug-in generation.

• Use the capabilities of the Job Manager tooling including the submission of Liberty profile jobs.

• Use scripting to perform administrative tasks, for example, scripting libraries, ws_ant, wsadmin

• Write, test, and debug scripts by using the IBM Rational Application Developer for WebSphere Software or the IBM WebSphere Application Server Developer Tools for Eclipse.

• Configure or modify a WebSphere Application Server environment by using properties files and/or the monitored directory feature.

5. Security configuration and Maintenance

• Configure user repositories.

• Configure SSL for clients and servers, for example, create certificates, populate trust stores and modify certificate expiration.

• Discuss the implications of resource security settings.

• Implement multiple security domains.

• Apply administrative and application security roles.

• Configure different authentication and authorization mechanisms, including SSO.

• Configure Java Enterprise, Liberty, Web and Web Services Security.

6. Clustering and Workload Management

• Configure clusters in workload management topologies.

• Configure and manage the HTTP server and the web server plug-in.

• Configure distributed session management for high availability and failover scenarios, including the WebSphere eXtreme Scale option.

• Configure messaging engine policies for clustered service integration bus (SIBus) members.

• Configure high availability using core groups.

• Utilize the capabilities of the Liberty collectives.

7. Intelligent Management and Resiliency

• Use the dynamic cluster elasticity feature.

• Create and configure On Demand Routers (ODR) and the ODR plug-in and associated service policies to enable the dynamic operations.

• Use health policies and actions to monitor and react to changing performance in the environment.

• Configure and maintain application editions.

8. Performance Monitoring and Tuning

• Use the Tivoli Performance Viewer (TPV) to monitor the WebSphere Application Server runtime.

• Use the Tivoli Performance Viewer (TPV) Advisor and the Diagnostic Advisor to obtain advice on performance issues.

• Tune parameters, for example JVM settings, connection pools, thread pools, that affect WebSphere Application Server performance.

• Use the Performance Monitoring Infrastructure (PMI) metrics and poll MBeans for performance data.

• Configure and monitor the WebSphere Application Server caching mechanisms.

• Configure multi-cell performance management.

9. Problem Determination

• Enable High-Performance Extensible Logging (HPEL) and view HPEL data.

• Enable Cross Component Trace (XCT) and view trace data in XCT Log Viewer.

• Use tools to trigger and analyze heap dumps, javacore dumps, system core dumps and verbose Garbage Collection (GC).

• Configure diagnostic tracing.

• Use "mustgather" documentation and/or the IBM Support Assistant to collect and analyze diagnostic data or submit data to IBM Support.

• Configure, review and analyze log files for example, First Failure Data Capture (FFDC), system logs, native logs.
