Overview
A Global Console can be opened
as an application in UNIX environment, as a Web Console in a Web Browser, or
with Java Web Start.
When you open a console at the
beginning of your session, you will need to log in. This involves specifying
your

username and password, broker information, and the
name
for attachment.
If you initially attach to a
Global Manager, one or more consoles display after you log in, depending upon
your user profile or the default user profile. For example, if your user
profile is configured for the Notification Log and Map Consoles, then two
consoles will appear after you log in. If you attach to a Domain Manager, the
Topology Browser Console appears first since Domain Managers do not maintain
user profiles.
