Question:
How to configure IAS so that multiple instances of IAS can run on the same machine?
Product version: IAS 4.0
Platform: Windows NT (platform independent issue)
JDK version: JDK 1.2.2-001
Component applicable: Install and Configuration
Answer:
You can have multiple copies of IAS on the same machine as follows:
1) Install 2 copies of IAS into two directories on same machine
2) Under each install directory of IAS, modify the following properties
files to make sure services included with each server have unique port
ID numbers
a) Locate the server properties directory:
install_dir /properties/server/server_name
where install_dir is the directory where you installed the Application
Server and server_name is the name of the Application Server.
You should have a server properties directory for each server you~ve
installed.
b) Add -Dvbroker.agent.port=X into the into the java.options file.
c) Modify endpoint.main.port setting in the following configuration
files to make sure the port IDs are unique.
.../secureservice/enpdpoint.properties
.../webpageservice/endpoint.properties
.../adminservice/admin_port_properties
.../sessionservice/endpoint.properties
The default port IDs set for the Inprise Application Server are listed
below. To prevent potential service conflicts, Inprise recommends you
customize these numbers~even if you~ve only installed one Application
Server on the computer.
Secure Web Service (https) .../secureservice/enpdpoint.properties
endpoint.main.port=7070
Web Service (http) .../webpageservice/endpoint.properties
endpoint.main.port=8080
Web Administration Tool .../adminservice/admin_port_properties
endpoint.main.port=9090
Session Service .../sessionservice/endpoint.properties
endpoint.main.port=9094
All other services like Naming Service by default use dynamically
assigned ports.
