A) ----> Memory Leakage issue is in Native code
  ----> For this issue we can need to get Heap Dumps and analyze the Dumps for any
Memory issues.
 -----> If we got any issue we need to ask developers to fix this issue.
 -----> For Temporary purpose we can increase Heap size.
2.TROUBLE SHOOTING IN WAS
 
-----> When we got any issue in WAS we have to trouble shoot that issue
-----> Suppose Page Cannot be Displayed HTTP 404we have to solve this issue.
-----> First we have to check the browser of our HTTP URL whether it is giving correct
URL or not from the address bar.
-----> If it is correct URL then we have to check the LOGS
1) JVM LOGS , (System.Out System.err)
2) PROCESS LOGS (NATIVE LOGS) (stdout, stderr) (native_stdout , native_stderr)
3) IBM service log (activitylog)
4) Http Server plugin (http_plugin.log)
 
----->First try to hit the web server if that is good then hit the
application server directly if both of them work then there is an issue
with plugin.sometimes the web server will be in hung state kill the web
server processes which can be found
4.
----->After all checking this things we have to logout from our application and we have
to stop the server and then starts the server.
5. Troubleshooting Out of Memory errors in WebSphere :
6.
7.
  ----> The garbage collection (GC) process struggles to free memory. GC is
running all the time
8. -----> The long and continuous GC cycles cause high C! in the application
ser"er
9. -----> The #pplication ser"er is not able to process re$uest as fast as they
come in. This creates $ueuing in the %eb and #pplication &er"ers.
10.----> The 'M e"entually stops responding and crashes. e$uests are failed
o"er to the ne*t ser"er.
11.
%hen an Out of Memory occurs+ three primary pieces of e"idence are left
at the scene.
13.-----> ,eapdump (%hat as in memory hen it happened)
14.----> 'a"acore (%hat as running hen it happened).
15.
16.
  ----> Garbage collection log - The /M &upport #ssistance (&#) pro"ides
the Garbage Collection and Memory isuali0er Tool to open the "erboseGC
log file
(M#T) in /M &upport #ssistant (&#)
  -----> 'a"acore - /M Thread and Monitor 1ump #naly0er for 'a"a
17.
18.
 ----> 'a"a heap e*haustion - The 'M cannot allocate an ob2ect because it
is out of memory and no more memory could be made a"ailable by the
garbage collector.
ob2ect hich 'a"a cannot accommodate in the heap.
  -----> 4ati"e memory allocation failure - The memory space for the
operating system process that correspond to 'a"a has to main areas
19.
  -----> The 'a"a ,eap hich contains the instances of 'a"a ob2ects and is
maintained by Garbage Collection
  -----> The 4ati"e ,eap hich contains - Compiled 'T code+ Malloc
allocation by application '4 code+ Threads to map to 'a"a threads and
4ati"e 1/5 or M6 libraries
21.
  -----> These to areas compete for the same process space - Ma7ing the
'a"a heap too large could lea"e too little nati"e memory. f you see malloc
 
23.
  - Large categories and lack of pagination or filtering (“show all”

62. Websphere Application Server Interview Question and Answers
63. What is a keystore?
 A keystore is a database that contains private keys with their assosiated certificates. he keystore will be used for encryptin!"si!nin! so#ethin! with your private key 
 What is A truststore ?
ruststore contains certificates to trust like $A certs and re#ote server certs. rust stores will be used #ostly to authenticate re#ote servers etc.
 What is root certificate?
a root certificate is either an unsi!ned public key certificate or a self%si!ned certificate that identifies the &oot $ertificate Authority '$A(. )i!ital certificates are  verified usin! a chain of trust. he trust anchor for the di!ital certificate is the &oot $ertificate Authority '$A(.
 
 A root certificate is the top%#ost certificate of the tree* the private key of which is used to +si!n+ other certificates. All certificates i##ediately below the root certificate inherit the trustworthiness of the root certificate. $ertificates further down the tree also depend on the trustworthiness of the inter#ediates. he root certificate is usually #ade trustworthy by so#e #echanis# other than a certificate* such as by secure physical distribution. ,or e-a#ple* so#e of the #ost  well%known root certificates are distributed in the Internet browsers by their #anufacturers. fro# Wikipedia/
 inter#ediate certificate
rusted &oot $A certificate can also be used to create another certificate* which in turn will then be used to issue SS0 $ertificates. So* an inter#ediate certificate is a subordinate certificate issued by the trusted root specifically to issue end%entity server certificates. he result is a certificate chain that be!ins at the trusted root $A* throu!h the inter#ediate and endin! with the SS0 certificate issued to you. Such certificates are called chained root certificates. As the Inter#ediate $ertificate is issued by the rusted &oot $A* any SS0 $ertificates issued by the Inter#ediate $ertificate inherits the trust of the rusted &oot % effectively creatin! a certification chain of trust.
 why to use inter#ediate certificates
here are #ainly two advanta!es. $reatin! certificates directly fro# the $A root certificate increases the risk of root certificate co#pro#ise* and if the $A root certificate is co#pro#ised* the entire trust infrastructure built by the SS0 provider will fail. he usa!e of inter#ediate certificates for issuin! SS0 certificates to end entities* therefore* provides an added level of security.
Inter#ediates also help by constrainin! the si1e of the $ertificate &evocation 0ist '$&0( associated with a certificate product. y periodically rollin! over the inter#ediate $A that si!ns the end entity certificates $&0s are kept to a #ini#u#. 4aintainin! opti#al $&0 si1es ensures that custo#ers have a s#ooth and sea#less e-perience visitin! SS0%secured websites while full security is #aintained transparently to custo#ers"end users.
in%bound and out%bound on the SS0 settin!s in websphere Si#ply i#a!ine the bus routes in your city. hey are na#ed north%bound"souuth%  bound etc.. based on the direction they travel.
In websphere inbound"outbound does the sa#e. hey specifies the direction of the SS0 connection. Inbound represents all server endpoints that receive connection. 5utbound represents all the client side connections fro# the carious servers within the cell.

&efresh pack   A refresh pack includes #inor new features and fi-es. Say 6..7 is a refresh pack for 6. and 6..2 is a refresh pack for 6..7. Say now you are applyin! refresh pack 6..2* it includes all the fueatures and fi-es in 6..7 plus fi-pack and inter# fi-es published for 6..7. So a refresh pack is cululative.
 fi- pack   A fi- pack is a packa!e of fi-es. ,i-packs install on top of refresh packs or on top of previous packs. ,or e-aAc#ple your present software version is 6.7. and you are applyin! 6.7..23* this is called fi-pack and will also be called as fi-pack 23 for 6.7..  After applyin! this fi-pack23* your server version will be 6.7..23.
 A fi- pack uninstalls all inter# fi-es applied to the release since the lasr refresh pack or fi-pack was installed. herefore I4 su!!ests to check the list of delivered fi-es to deter#ine if an inter#fi- needs to be installed. 4ay not be correct but in otherwords* a fi- pack is a packa!e of fi-es for a refresh pack.

 what is a connecting pool a connection pool is a cache of database connections #aintained so that the connections can be reused when future re<uests to the database are re<uired. $onnection pools are used to enhance the perfor#ance of e-ecutin! co##ands on a database. In connection poolin!* after a connection is created* it is placed in the pool and it is used over a!ain so that a new connection does not have to be established. If all the connections are bein! used* a new connection is #ade and is added to the pool. $onnection poolin! also cuts down on the a#ount of ti#e a user #ust wait to establish a connection to the database.

105. WebSphere Application Server Interview Questions 2
106.Posted by        at Tuesday, February 26, 2013
107.31. What is JNDI?
  We can register resources in the application server's and directory interface(JNDI) namespace.
Client application can obtain the references to these resource objects in their programes or JDBC is a low
level pure Java API used to execute SQL statements.
32. How to disable the security?
  Open the admin console and expands the security, select the global security we are going to un
check the enable the administrative security and save. Restart the server and re login to admin console.
  OR
  Edit the Security.xml file(C:\IBM\WebSphere\AppSrv01_Profile\config\cells\ajay-pcNode01Cell)
enabled="false" and restart the server and re login to Console.
  OR
wsadmin>securityoff
  We can federate a node in two ways
  1. Admin Console
 Before federating any node we must make sure the following
Application server should be started on the node to be added.
We need to find the SOAP connector for DMGR(we can find this in communication section in the detailed
page for the application server default is 8879)
I). Through Admin Console
  ii. Click on Nodes
 
 iv. select managed node and click next then specify the host name of the Node to be added to the cell.
  v. then select the connector type type(SOAP or RMI) and connector port. if security is enabled provided
user id and password andinclude application(if required)
II). Through Command prompt 
Go to Application server profile bin>addNode.bat dmgr-hostname dmgr_port num -include apps
34. What is virtual host?
  A Virtual host is a configuration that enables a single host machine to resemble multiple host
machines. This configuration allows a single machine to support several independently configured and
administered applications. A virtual host is not associated with a particular node. It is a configuration, rather
than a live object, which is why you can create it but cannot start or stop it.
 37. How many ways we can synchronize a node?
  We can synchronize the node in two ways
 Through Command Prompt 
stop the node then issue the "SynNode" command in the command prompt.
 /bin>SynNode.
  then click on Nodes
  Click Sync button in top of the node list.
38. Configure the plug-in through admin console is possible or Not?
  Possible
  500 Error meansserver side error application s, Servers.
40. What is difference between page not found and HTTP 404? How to resolve these issues?
  The page not found error is the request is not reaching the server. HTTP 404 error is request is
reaching to server but whatever it is expecting it's not found at expected location.
41. What is meant by Java Script?
  Java Script is a scripting tool to developed web applications.
42. What is meant by Heap in Java process and what information will be available in Heap file?
  Heap is used to collect the garbage for Java applications, the Heap file contains the garbage
collected from java process.
43. What are the available log files in WAS 7.x?
  There are types of log files available in WAS V7.x, those are
  JVM Logs
  systemOut.log, systemErr.log
Process Logs
 44. What is Master Repository?  Deployment manager contains the Master configuration and
application files. All the updates to the configuration files should go through the deployment Manager.
45. Tell me IHS Executable files, means bin directory files?
  Apache, htpasswd, htdbm, ApacheMonitor, idapstash, httpd.exe
46. Why given the httpd.conf file to installation of plugin?
  Identify the web server (port, virtual hosts) to configure the web Server definition.
47. How to configure Remote system httpd.conf file?
  When you operate the web server as remote access that time you will configure httpd.conf file from
console.
48. What are the different packages available in WebSphere Application Server v7.x?
  Express, Base, Network Deployment(ND)
49. What is Trace?
  A Trace is an information record that is intended for engineers or developers to use. A trace record
might be considerably more complex, Verbose and detailed than a message entry.
50. What is Heap Memory?

S K2
S racle
S *lo"dscape
701. /pplication ser#er is +K%/) and the s"pported we ser#ers are
S +K ser#er
S )"n we ser#er
702. B) &tate some of the features present in eb sphere
703. )ome of the feat"res which are present in we sphere are: -
S rder management
S pen standards s"ch as Na#a, NK,
etc
and c"stomer care, etc
704. ?) E*plain about /M %eb &phere edge ser"er
705. %e sphere edge ser#er is "sed to impro#e the performance of we ased
systems. +t can e "sed as forward or pro$y ser#er. Kasically fo"r components are
present in the we sphere they are etwor; dispatcher, *aching pro$y, *ontent
distri"tion and application ser#ice at the edge.
706. 9) E*plain about e*tended deployment
707. %e sphere application ser#er e$tended deployment increases the
f"nctionality of the ser#er in two main areas they are manageaility and
performance. ynamic #irt"aliBation etween ser#ers is possile with the help of A.
/ stand alone distri"ted cache was added to it "nder the performance header, it is
;nown as @ect rid.
708. :) E*plain about the security features present in %#&
709. )ec"rity model for we sphere is primarily ased on N/O/ sec"rity model.
 
mechanisms are also pro#ided in %/). ight weight third party a"thentication
mechanism is the main sec"rity feat"re present in %/).
710. D) E*plain about asymmetric clustering
711. /symmetric cl"stering applications are primarily "sed in electronic trading
systems employed in an;s. )ome of the feat"res are, partitions can e declared
d"ring r"n time and are "s"ally r"n on a single cl"ster at a time. %or; specific to a
partic"lar can e ro"ted to that cl"ster.
712. A) E*plain the "arious #dministrator benefits using %eb
sphere
713. %e sphere almost red"ces the wor; of ser#er administrator as he can
manage load on ser#ers efficiently witho"t any hassles. +t also gi#es him fle$iility to
di#ide the load and applications among different ser#er farms. !e can also predict
ao"t the incoming load on ser#ers. mail alerts, restart options, memory lea;
detection, etc.
714. ;@) E*plain about caching pro*y of /M %eb sphere Edge
sphere
715. / caching pro$y can e config"red in forward direction or as a pro$y. *ontent
re("ested y the "ser is cached y edge efore sending or adhering to the ("ery.
&age fragments arising from N)& or ser#lets are cached y dge and the caching
process is slow. &erformance and scalaility of N2 applications can e increased y
edge.
%#&
717. anaging singletons will e a thing of the past and it also pro#ides hot
reco#ery of singletons which ma;es yo" forget ao"t yo"r * collected singletons.
ransaction logs can stored on a shared file system. =or cl"stering r"n time
operations deployment managerTs role was eliminated. N2 failo#er s"pport and cell
config"ration s"pport is also present.
718. ;5) E*plain about /M eb sphere integration de"eloper
719. %e sphere integration de#eloper pro#ides an + to "ild applications ased
on ser#ice oriented architect"re. %e sphere process ser#er and we sphere )K
were "ilt with %+. %+ was "ilt with / clipse ased technology.
 
720. ;=) E*plain about compute Grid
721. *omp"te grid is also ;nown as %e sphere atch. %e sphere e$tended
deployment offers a Na#a atch processing system called as *omp"te rid. his
forms an additional feat"re to %e sphere networ; en#ironment. Oario"s feat"res
are pro#ided which help a de#eloper to create, manage and e$ec"te atch @os. No
sched"ler, $N*, atch container and atch programming controller.
722. ;B) E*plain about eb sphere M6 eal time transport
723. his feat"re is #ery "sef"l in instant messaging across different clients
thro"gh intranet and internet. his s"pports high #ol"me and high performance
across different clients. +t "ses the concept of light weight transport which is again
ased on +& rather than the ("e"e process.
724. ;?) E*plain about %eb sphere M6 'M& ro"ider
725. %e sphere M and %e )phere K"siness integration manager Kro;er are
#ery "sef"l in pro#iding Na#a messaging ser#ices to wide range of clients Cp"lisher U
s"scrie, point to pointD. Na#a classes are chiefly responsile for translating the /&+
calls to /&+Ts defined y we sphere. +t is #ery "sef"l to ha#e ;nowledge of %e
sphere M for proper config"ration.
726. ;9) E*plain the attribute C,#44E3 in eb sphere M6
727. *!/ specifies the name of the ser#er connection channel. enerally this
is %e )phere M networ; astraction. he defa"lt standard "sed y *!/ is
)O* which is the ser#er connection channel. his ser#er is generally "sed to
comm"nicate to the ("e"e manager y the client.
728. ;:) s the naming of connection factory independent of the
name specified by 'M& client
729. Ges, the naming of connection factory is independent of the name specified y
N) client. his is made possile y %/) C%e sphere application ser#erD with its
reso"rce references. +t isolates the application from o@ect names. his feat"re is
important eca"se it gi#es "s the fle$iility to change the administered o@ect
witho"t changing the N) client code.
730. ;D) %hat is the difference beteen %eb &er"er and #pplication
&er"er
 
732. / %e ser#er handles the !& protocol. %hen the %e ser#er recei#es an
!& re("est, it responds with an !& response, s"ch as sending ac; an !
