You can configure Web modules in an application as remote request
dispatcher clients to dispatch include requests to resources across Web modules
that are in different Java virtual machines in a managed node environment
through the standard request dispatcher.
Before you begin
You must have WebSphere Application Server for Network Deployment
installed to use remote request dispatcher function. You should also familiarize
yourself the limitations of remote request dispatcher. See article,
Remote request dispatcher considerations for details.
Procedure
- In the administrative console, click application_name.
- Select Allow dispatching includes to remote resources.
Results
Web modules included in this application are enabled as remote request
dispatcher clients that can dispatch remote includes.
What to do next
You must enable remote request dispatcher on both the remote server
and local server to use remote request dispatcher. If you have not yet enabled
remote request dispatcher on the remote server that includes the resource
that you want to include, see article,
Configuring Web applications to service remote includes.
