Find the Source of Issues

The Admin Console Auditing Service in Payara Server will keep track of all actions that are executed (manually or through the asadmin CLI tool) so that you can later determine if any problem was linked to a certain command that was executed.

Automate Actions

The Asadmin Recorder feature will allow you to record the actions you take in the Payara Server Admin Console as asadmin commands. Once enabled, the asadmin command for the corresponding action will be recorded to a file and can be reused later to reduce mistakes.
