A server template is used to define the initial configuration settings
for a new application server. When you create a new application server, you
select a server template for the type of server. The default template is used
if you do not specify a different template when you create the server.
All servers in a server cluster are created with the same server template.
In a heterogenous cell, you can have managed nodes on a mixture of distributed
and z/OS operating system platforms. After you select a managed node on which
to create a server, the administrative console offers you the choice of templates
that can be used for the operating system platform of that node.
The following default server templates are provided for managed nodes on
the operating system platforms indicated in parentheses:
- defaultWPSServer (distributed platforms) or defaultWPSServerZOS (z/OS
platform)
- Use this template if you want the server to support service applications
for advanced integration capabilities such as business processes and state
machines for endpoint orchestration, and business rules for dynamic decision
making.
- The server can also support:
- Service applications for mediation modules on an enterprise service bus,
as in Enterprise Service Bus.
- Enterprise applications as in WebSphere Application Server.
- defaultESBServer (distributed platforms) or defaultESBServerZOS (z/OS
platform)
- Use this template if you want the server to support service applications
for mediation modules on an enterprise service bus.
- The server can also support enterprise applications as in WebSphere Application Server.
- default (distributed platforms) or defaultZOS (z/OS platform)
- Use this template if you want the server to support enterprise applications
as in WebSphere Application Server.
Instead of these default server templates, you can create your own templates
based on another, already existing application server. This enables you to
create a template with the same configuration properties as the existing server.
