After you install the SIP and XMPP proxy server node, you
must federate the node into the deployment manager's cell so that
the proxy server becomes part of the cluster.
Before you begin
Expected state: The deployment manager is running.
About this task
To federate or add the proxy server node into the cell, you
run the addnode
command on the proxy server node
and specify the hostname of the deployment manager.For additional
information about default paths, see Directory conventions.
Procedure
- Log into the proxy server node's operating system.
-
IBM i only: On the command line, run the STRQSH (Start Qshell) command.
- Synchronize the system clocks on the deployment manager
and the proxy node so that they are within five minutes of one another
and are set for the same time zone.
Federation fails
if the clocks are not synchronized within five minutes of each other.
- On the proxy server node, open a command window and navigate
to the
profile_root\bin
directory.
-
IBM i only: Run the following command to obtain the SOAP_CONNECTOR_ADDRESS port number. Make a
note of the port number as you will need it to add nodes to the cluster:
- Run the following command to add the proxy server node
to the deployment manager's cell:
Linux™
./addNode.sh DM_server_host_name DM_port_number -includeapps
Windows™
addNode.bat DM_hostname DM_port_number -includeapps
where:
- DM_server_host_name is the resolvable host
name of the deployment manager.
- DM_SOAP_portis the port that the deployment
manager's SOAP port is listening on.
- WAS_Admin_user_name_on_DM is the user ID of
the WebSphere® Application
Server administrator account on the deployment manager.
- WAS_Admin_password_on_DM is the password associated
with the WebSphere Application
Server administrator account.
For example:
addNode gateway_dm.example.com 8879 -includeapps -username wasadmin -password waspassword
- When prompted, provide the deployment manager's administrative
user ID and password.
Wait for the operation to complete
before proceeding. Look for a success message similar to the following
when complete:
Node MyProxyNode has been successfully federated.
- Verify that the proxy servers are installed correctly:
- Log into the Integrated Solutions Console.
If
you already logged in, you must log out and then log in again before
you can see changes.
-
Click and verify that the SIP proxy server appears in the list.
-
Click and verify that the XMPP proxy server appears in the list.
