You must configure your WebSphere® eXtreme Scale servers to run in the WebSphere Application Server Liberty profile. Complete this
task to configure eXtreme Scale servers
with Eclipse tools.
About this task
Configuring the
eXtreme Scale server
entails specifying the server properties and including those properties
in the
Liberty profile server.xml file
in the
wlp_home/usr/servers/your_server_name directory.
This server definition is required to run
eXtreme Scale in the
Liberty profile.

also includes adding the configuration from the eXtreme Scale server properties
file, xsServerConfig.xml, to the
server.xml file.

properties file.

including catalog servers and container servers. An example of the
defined security properties is the authenticator configuration, which
represents the user registry and authentication mechanism. The file
name specified for this property must be in a URL format, such as file:///tmp/og/objectGridSecurity.xml.
