You can create servers using either the Create New Application
Server wizard in the administrative console or the createApplicationServer
wsadmin command.
Before you begin
Why and when to perform this task
Before you can deploy an SCA module, you must create
a server that is to run the SCA module.
You can deploy several SCA modules
to the same server, so you only need to complete this task if you want to
create a new server; for example, to handle more client connections or provide
greater message throughput than the one server, or to separate the administration
of SCA modules onto different servers.
To create a server, use the administrative
console to complete the following steps:
Steps for this task
- Display the list of servers.
In the navigation pane,
expand .
- Click New.
- On the Create New Application Server page, follow the instructions
to define your server.
- Select the node on which you want the server to run.
The
node must be a WebSphere Process Server managed
node.
- Type a unique name for the server.
The name must
be unique within the node.
- Click Next
- Select the defaultESBServer template (or an
existing server) to be used to create the server. The selected
template or server defines the initial properties of the new server.
- Instead of selecting a template, you can select an existing ESB server as
a template. The new server inherits all properties of the selected server.
- If you have selected a z/OS node, the template names offered indicate
that platform.
- For more information about the available server templates, see Server templates
- Click Next
- For the Generate Unique Http Ports option,
choose whether the new server will have unique ports for each HTTP transport.
By default, the Generate Unique Http Ports option
is selected. If you select this option, you might need to update the alias
list for the virtual host that you plan to use with this server to contain
these new port values. If you deselect this option, ensure that the default
port values do not conflict with other servers on the same physical machine.
For more information about using unique HTTP ports, see Configuring
HTTP transports.
- Click Next
- If you create the new server using an existing server as a template,
do not select to map applications from the existing server to the new server.
By default, this option is disabled.
- Click Next
- On the Confirm new server page, check the summary. To complete
the server creation, click the Finish.
If
there are settings you wish to change, click Previous to
review or change the server settings.
- Optional: To use multiple language
encoding support in the administrative console, configure
an application server with UTF-8 encoding enabled.
- Save your changes to the master configuration.
Result
The server is created and appears in the list of servers on the
Application Servers page.
What to do next
You can now manage the server; for example, to start the server
or deploy SCA modules.
Note: The server was created with default values
for some of its properties. A server has many properties that can be set,
and creating a server on the Create New Application Server page specifies
values for only some of the important properties. To view all of the properties
of your server, and to customize your server further, click on the name of
your server on the Application Servers page. This displays the server detail
settings page, on which you can view and change properties as needed.
