After creating a Sametime® Media Manager Conference
Manager cluster, add the SIP ports of each cluster member to the virtual
host alias.
Before you begin
Create a cluster of Media Manager "Conference Manager"
components. Adding the SIP ports of each cluster member to the virtual
host alias is required to ensure that the cluster operates properly.
About this task
On the cluster's deployment manager (the Sametime System Console),
update the default_host virtual host with a unique set of web access
ports. Such a configuration lets a single host computer resemble multiple
host computers.
Tip: Print this page and use the table
to record the port settings as you look them up in steps 1 and 2.
Table 1. Write down the port numbers used for these settings
in every cluster member

Procedure
- Determine the ports used by every cluster member:
- In the deployment manager's (the Sametime System Console)
Integrated Solutions Console, click .
- In the table listing the servers, click the name of
the cluster member.
This displays the cluster
member's "Configuration" page.
- On the "Configuration" page, locate the "Communication"
section and expand Ports.
- Look in the Ports table and write down the following
port settings for use in the next step:
- SIP_DEFAULTHOST
- SIP_DEFAULTHOST_SECURE
- Repeat this process for every cluster member.
- Next, determine the ports used by every WebSphere® proxy server that operates with
this cluster.
- In the deployment manager's (the Sametime System Console)
Integrated Solutions Console, click .
- In the table listing the servers, click the name of
the WebSphere proxy server.
This displays the cluster member's "Configuration"
page.
- On the "Configuration" page, locate the "Communication"
section and expand Ports.
- Look in the Ports table and write down the following
port settings for use in the next step:
- PROXY_SIP_ADDRESS
- PROXY_SIPS_ADDRESS
- Repeat this process for every WebSphere proxy server used by the cluster.
- Now add the ports used by all the cluster members and all
of the WebSphere proxy
servers to the deployment manager's Virtual Hosts table.
- Now return to the Integrated Solutions Console navigation
tree and click .
- In the Virtual Hosts table, click the host called default_host.
This displays the "Configuration" page for the default_host.
- In the "Additional Properties" section, click Host
Aliases.
- In the "Host Aliases" table, add the ports used by all
of the cluster members (the information you collected in Step 1):
Remember that you have information on two ports for each
cluster member; however if a port is already listed in the table,
you do not need to add it again.
To add a port:
- Click the New button at the beginning of
the table.
- In the Host Name field, type
*
.
- In the Port field, type a port from your
list.
- Click OK.
- Repeat this for the two ports for every cluster member (unless
a port is already listed in this table).
- Now delete all of the table entries that do not use
* as the Host Name.
To delete an entry, click on the
check box preceding it, and then click the Delete button
at the beginning of the table.
- Save the changes by clicking the Save link
in the "Messages" box at the beginning of the page.
- Synchronize all of the nodes:
- Still working on the deployment manager, click .
- Select all nodes in the cluster.
- Click Full Resynchronize.
