Creating a new instance
To create a new instance called VC on port 905, enter:
crtnewinst -instance VC -bootstrap 905 -lsd 9005
For full details, see the WebSphere Application Server documents on the Web at:
http://www-1.ibm.com/servers/eserver/iseries/software/WebSphere/wsappserver/docs/as400v35/
docs/doccntr.pdf
Starting the administration server
To start the administration server, follow these steps:
1. On the iSeries, enter the command: 
STRSBS SBSD(QEJB/QEJBSBS)
This starts the QEJB subsystem and two autostart jobs QEJBADMIN and QEJBMNTR.
2. WebSphere cannot start until the administration server is ready. To find out the status of 
the administration server, check the job log for the QEJBADMIN job. Enter the following 
command:
WRKACTJOB SBS(QEJBSBS)
3. On the next display, type 
5
 next to QEJBADMIN to view the job. 
4. Select option 
10
 to view the job log. Wait until the message “
WebSphere administration 
server QEJBADMIN ready.
 appears. This may take several minutes.
Starting the instance
Once QEJBSBS is running, the instance created above may start. If the default instance is 
not required for other purposes, QEJBADMIN and QEJBMNTR may be cancelled. To start the 
new instance, go to Qshell and enter the following command:
strwasinst -instance VC -http VC
This command starts the WebSphere instance VC that uses an HTTP Server instance, which 
is also called VC.
Importing the configuration file
The import tool needs to run within Qshell. Follow these steps:
1. Run the Start Qshell (STRQSH) command and after each command wait for $ signs to 
appear. 
2. Change the current directory within Qshell. Enter the following command:
cd /QIBM/ProdData/WebASAdv/bin
3. Import the config.xml configuration file from VendorConnect/Config. 
4. To use the delivered file to configure the default instance on an iSeries server, use this 
command, substituting your server name for 
iSeries
XMLConfig -adminNodeName <iSeries> -import /VendorConnect/VC.xml 
-substitute "nodename=<iSeries>;host=<iSeries+domain>;port=<port number>;IP=<IP 
address>
"
It may run for some minutes.
Important: To import the configuration file, the WebSphere instance 
must
 be running, but 
the console 
must not
 be running.
