  • 1.  Not able to access the API Connect management console

    Posted Mon August 16, 2021 12:47 PM
    Hello there,

    We just deployed the API Connect OVA and we are trying to access the management console ( https://<cloud-admin-ui>/admin.) but it is unavailable.
    What should be done here?

    Thanks,
    Jala

    Hi Jala,

    You can check the cluster (management) status by running:

    apic status

    Also, this is an excellent reference to verify that the management OVA deployment succeeded.: https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/api-connect/10.0.x?topic=subsystem-verify-installation-management

    Hello Jala,

    Please check if installation of the management server is proper, check the link provided by @Rashid Aljohani.

    Please check if all DNS entries are correct and its resolving properly. You must have defined all the endpoints while creating the iso.
    fqdn: should resolve to your management IP
    api-manager-ui: should resolve to your management IP
    cloud-admin-ui: should resolve to your management IP
    consumer-api: should resolve to your management IP
    platform-api: should resolve to your management IP

    Regards,
    Sarada Sahoo

    Hi,

    Thank you both.
    Actually, it seems that I didn't complete the installation process yet :-).
    I have a quistion regarding the doc'"
    https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/api-connect/2018.x?topic=environment-deploying-management-subsystem-in-vmware

    step 9 (Set a Public key.)
    apicup subsys set mgmt ssh-keyfiles=path_to_public_ssh_keyfile

    The key should be generated OT should be used from another place?

    Thanks,
    Jala
