Hi All,

    This post is related to the slowness of Deployment Manager(DMgr) Console in Websphere Application Server (WAS v8.5) ND topology.

    We are observing slowness while performing some of the configurations like Data Source creation ,configurations, Applications installation, Tuning, setting JVM custom properties,etc..in DMGR console.

    I have set initial and maximum heap size to be 1GB ( for optimal performance) for DMgr process. But still the slowness issue persists.It takes lot of time to finish any activity in console.

    Please suggest me some of the tuning recommendations (application & OS level) so that this issue can be resolved after the implementation .

    OS version : AIX 7.1
    WAS version : WAS v8.5


   Thanks in advance!!!

Hi Pavan,

  With 1GB for DMGR would need to be enough, but take in mind the size of your cell.

  Review your hostname resolution in all the components (DMGR, NodeAgents, Servers), directly and reverse.
 
    f.e if you do a dnslookup of DMGR_HOSTNAME you will get an IP address then if you do a dnslookup of the IP you need to get the SAME hostname.
    
  Review if you get the same resolution from DMGR and from nodes.

  I have use the next links several times:

   Slow performance or hang in HostName lookup

   Hang/slowness in WebSphere Application Server Administrative console
   www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=s...

  Finally if you have security enabled and is with some LDAP, is communication over SSL?
 
  Slow Logon to Admin Console after implementing federated repository

  Hope this helps.
