After you create a middleware server representation of
a custom HTTP server in the administrative console, you must update
a few configuration settings so that they are defined specifically
for your custom HTTP server installation.
Before you begin
Federate the node that is running the custom HTTP server and
create a representation of the server in the administrative console.
About this task
To perform server operations on your server from the administrative
console, you must configure the server operations for the custom HTTP
server middleware server representation.
Procedure
Configure server operations for the custom HTTP server
to include the user name and password.- In the administrative console, click .
- Edit the start and stop server operations.
- Define the location of the process ID (PID) file on
the server. Create the PID file name environment variable.
The PID file name specifies the location of the PID file where the
server operation runs. To define the PID file name variable, click or . Enter the same name for the variable that you entered
in the server operations panel, and for the value, enter the fully
qualified or variable qualified location of the PID file.
What to do next
- To use this configuration when you are configuring your other
custom HTTP servers, create a server template of your current custom
HTTP server.
- Use the external log viewing service to view the log files for
your custom HTTP server from the administrative console.
- Use the external configuration service to edit the configuration
files for your custom HTTP server from the administrative console.
- After you create representations of all the custom HTTP servers,
you can add the representations to a dynamic cluster.
