Adding load balancer ports to the virtual host alias for the Conference Manager cluster

After creating an IBM® Sametime® Media Manager Conference Manager cluster, add the load balancer ports that you created for the cluster's IBM WebSphere® proxy servers to the default_host alias in the cluster's virtual host

About this task

Earlier, you created a PROXY_SIP_ADDRESS_LB non-secured port and a PROXY_SIPS_ADDRESS_LB secure port for each proxy server used by the Conference Manager cluster. Now you will add those ports to the default_host virtual host.

Note: If a port has already been created, you do not need to add it again.

Procedure

  1. On the WebSphere proxy server, log in to the Integrated Solutions Console as the WebSphere administrator.
  2. In the navigator, click Environment > Virtual Hosts.
  3. In the virtual hosts table, click on the host called default_host.
  4. On the Configuration page, look under Additional Properties and click Host Aliases.
  5. If the PROXY_SIP_ADDRESS_LB non-secured port appears in the table, skip to the next step; otherwise, add the port now as follows:
    1. In the "Host Aliases" table, click the New button at the beginning of the table.
    2. In the Host Name field, type *.
    3. In the Port field, type the port that you assigned to PROXY_SIP_ADDRESS_LB (typically 5060).
    4. Click OK.
  6. If the PROXY_SIPS_ADDRESS_LB secure port appears in the table, skip to the next step; otherwise, add the port now as follows:
    1. In the "Host Aliases" table, click the New button at the beginning of the table.
    2. In the Host Name field, type *.
    3. In the Port field, type the port that you assigned to PROXY_SIPS_ADDRESS_LB (typically 5061).
    4. Click OK.
  7. Save the change to the master configuration by clicking the Save link in the "Messages" box at the beginning of the page.
