If you have a running system with a IBM® XDMS node
that was defined during installation, you can add a new server instance
by performing the configuration using the WebSphere Integrated Solutions Console.
Before you begin
The
IBM XDMS installer
has been run on the new server node, and
IBM XDMS Core
files have been installed.
- Log in to the Integrated Solutions Console:
- Open a browser and navigate to the following
URL: https://host_name:port/ibm/console.
Where:
- host_name is the fully qualified host name
of the server where the application or the network deployment manager
is deployed.
- port is the secured port used to access the
console. The default port is 9043.
Note: The default unsecured port is 9060.
If you use 9060, you must have "http" instead of "https" in the URL.
- Enter an administrator user ID and password. (Omit the password if security is
not enabled.)
- Click Log in.
- Create a new server in a cluster:
- In the Integrated Solutions Console,
click .
Note: If you are using WebSphere® Application Server version 6.1.0.x, reach
this window by clicking .
- Select the check box associated with the name of the
cluster.
- Click Start.
- Click the existing cluster name.
- Under Additional Properties, click Cluster
members.
- Click New.
- Specify the new server name.
- From the drop-down list, select the node on which you
want to create the new server.
- Click Add Member.
- Click Next.
- Click Finish.
- Update the SIBus to include a new member
- On the deployment manager server, change directories
to was_root/bin.
- Run the following command: ./wsadmin.sh –lang
jython –f was_root/installableApps/xdms/scripts/install/xdmsMessaging.py -create
-cluster cluster_name -busDataSourceJndi jndi_name. For example:
./wsadmin.sh –lang jython
–f /opt/IBM/Websphere/AppServer/installableApps/xdms/scripts/install/xdmsMessaging.py
-create –cluster SharedListCluster -busDataSourceJndi jdbc/xdmssib.
- Review the Session Initiation Protocol (SIP)
and HTTP ports assigned to the new server in the cluster:
- In the navigation pane, click .
Note: If you are using WebSphere Application Server version 6.1.0.x, reach
this window by clicking .
- Click the server name, for example SharedList0.
- Under Communications, click Ports.
- Verify that SIP_DEFAULTHOST, SIP_DEFAULTHOST_SECURE,
and WC_defaulthost appear in the list. Remember these port
numbers, you will need them later.
- Also verify these values for the other new servers added
to the cluster.
- Add definitions for virtual hosts:
- On the navigation panel, click .
- Click default_host.
- Under Additional Properties, click Host Aliases to
display a list of port numbers.
- Verify that the port numbers collected in step 4 are specified in the
list of ports.
- Click New to create the missing
port.
- Type the port number in the Port field.
- Click OK.
- Add additional ports until all port numbers are listed.
- For Oracle setup only, adjust the JVM settings by following
the steps in the topic Configuring IBM XDMS to work with Oracle Database.
- Stop and restart the application
server, nodes, and deployment manager.
