In a flexible management environment, you can submit the Create proxy server job. A proxy server routes requests to application server nodes. The job creates a proxy server that runs on a deployment manager or stand-alone node. The proxy server becomes a managed resource of the job manager.
Start the job manager. If you are adding the proxy server to a deployment manager node, start the deployment manager and the target federated node. If you are adding the proxy server to a stand-alone node, start the stand-alone node and the administrative agent. The target nodes must be managed by the job manager.
To submit the Create proxy server job, the target node must support proxy servers.
Your ID at the job manager must be authorized for the administrator role or the operator role to submit jobs. When you submit a job, you can specify a user name and password for authentication and authorization at the target node or nodes. When you submit a job to multiple target nodes, the user name and password or the credentials for the submitter must apply to all the job targets.
You can use the administrative console of the job manager to create a proxy server on one or more managed nodes. From the job manager console, choose the Create proxy server job, specify job options, review the summary, and submit the job. This topic describes how to use the job manager console to submit the job.
Instead of using the job manager console, you can run the createProxyServer job script in the AdministrativeJobs command group. See the Administrative job types topic.
The target nodes run the job and attempt to create the proxy server.
On the Job status page, click the ID of the create proxy
server job and view the job status. Click the status refresh icon to refresh the displayed status.
If the job is not successful, view any error messages that result from running the job, correct the error condition, and submit the job again.
If the job is successful, click
to see the new proxy server in the list of resources. The status of the proxy server is Stopped.After creating the proxy server, you can run a job that starts the proxy server.
