This Panel allows you to install and uninstall both SuperComponent beans and foreign beans. They are components of Acelet-Scheduler, not components for application server or container. Each SuperComponent is an application module. You can get them from Acelet or third parties. You can write your own SuperComponent as well.
Installed component list: This list shows all installed beans (regular Java Beans for Acelet-Scheduler, not for server, they are not Enterprise Java Beans). Envoy beans are not listed on this panel.
Install New: Displays a FileChooser window for you to choose a jar file for installation.
Uninstall: Uninstalls highlighted item.
Connect Panel
Server: The application server to connect to. It is disabled. The value is your choice when you installed Acelet-Scheduler.
Nickname: The server nickname is for the instance of server. This is for your convenience only.
URL: The provider URL. Acelet-Scheduler uses it to connect to the server. See JNDI properties for details. This URL is used to get InitialContext.
Login name: Your login name for the application server. Acelet-Scheduler simply passes it to the server. Your server authenticates it, not Acelet-Scheduler.
Password: Your password for to the server. Acelet-Scheduler simply passes it to the server. Your server authenticates it, not Acelet-Scheduler.
Remember login name and password: Check this box if you want your Login name and Password to be remembered by Acelet-Scheduler. This is to remember login name and password for this panel only. Other panels provide similar facilities. Note: the login name and password will be saved as plain text. Check this box if your computer is in a trusted environment.
Ok: Tries to connect to the application server and closes this panel, if the connection is successful.
Cancel: Closes the window without doing anything.
Both Nickname and URL are automatically saved for future use, if the connection is a successful one.
Note (advance topic): When the Connect Panel connects to the application server, it tries to read a JNDI properties file under the current working directory (acelet-scheduler as default). all properties specified in this file will be used to connect the server. See JNDI properties for details.
URL value:
Weblogic: If you connect to a cluster, you can specify cluster-wide URL. For example:
- If your cluster uses the same port on different machine: t3://acme1,acme2,acme3:7001
- If your cluster uses different ports: t3://node1:7001,node2:7002,node3:7003
User credential:
Jboss: The default login name and password are: empty login name and passwordJonas: The default login name and password are: empty login name and password.
Universal: See Universal Envoy for more information.
Weblogic: The default login name and password are: login name: weblogic; password: the password you provided for Weblogic application server. If you connect to a cluster and the cluster is explicitly set to use Administration port, please see User credentials and administration port for details.
Websphere: The default login name and password are: empty login name and password.
This panel allows you to specify the font.

This panel shows all available JNDI names as a tree. You can expand or collapse the whole tree or its branches.
The JNDI names listed here are all objects available for your user credential. JNDI names are followed by the class name of the object in parentheses, or square bracket if the class is not Serializable. The list is a snapshot at the time it opens. It is not dynamically updated.
Note: You may see some of your EJBs on the tree, but not on JNDI list of Peek Panel or Poke Panel of EasyEJB. In that case, most likely, your EJB's stubs are not on the CLASSPATH. This panel tries to find all JNDI names without touch the corresponding objects, so even there is no stub, the name still can be listed here. But on Peek Panel or Poke Panel, EasyEJB needs to inspect the object which JNDI name points to. If the stub is not available, errors may occur, so the name can not be listed on the JNDI list there. See EJB stubs are needed for related information.
This panel shows a list of items. The list can be maintained by clicking the following buttons:
Add: Adds an item into the list.
Edit: Edits the highlighted item in the list.
Delete: Deletes the highlighted item. A confirmation window will pop up before deleting.
Ok: Selects the highlighted item and closes this panel.
Cancel: Cancels this panel.

Alert email: It is the recipient's email addresses as the "To" address . This is the email address for sending an alert message to when database errors occur. It can be more than one email address, separated by commas. If this email address is not set, the request for the alert email will be ignored.

This panel shows the information which would be printed on your regular STDERR and STDOUT.
The information here is a snapshot information at the time you open it. It will not be dynamically refreshed.
