You can use the WebSphere® Application Server administrative console to start and stop IBM® HTTP Server.
You can administer IBM HTTP
Server through the WebSphere Application Server
administrative console using the WebSphere Application
Server node agent or using the IBM HTTP
Server administration server. An IBM HTTP
Server that is defined to a deployment manager (dmgr) managed node
is administered using the node agent. An IBM HTTP
Server that is defined to an unmanaged node is administered using
the administration server.
You can administer IBM HTTP
Server through the WebSphere Application Server
administrative console using the WebSphere Application
Server node agent. In order to enable the WebSphere Application
Server administrative console for administering IBM HTTP
Server, you need to specify the -admin option during
installation of IBM HTTP Server. Or, if you already installed IBM HTTP
Server without specifying the -admin option, you
can run the bin/enable_admin script. For more
information about enabling the administrative console for administering IBM HTTP
Server on z/OS®, see Configuring an instance of IBM HTTP Server on the z/OS system.
To confirm that IBM HTTP Server started successfully, open a browser and type in your server name in the URL box.
If you are going to run Application Response Measurement (ARM) agents, make sure you have the authority to run ARM agents when you start IBM HTTP Server.
