The iWay Service Manager (iSM) Administration Console provides a central interface for design-time and run-time activities, which are independent from one another. During design time, components can be constructed and configured without referencing any specific run-time servers. These components are stored in a design-time registry. Once design-time components have been defined, they can be assembled and deployed to one or more run-time instances of iSM. The registry also gives access to the configuration of resources such as adapters, emitters, listeners, services, and encryptors. Please note that there is only one registry that is available for each instance of iWay Service Manager.
