Unmanaged web server

Unmanaed web servers reside on a System without a node agent. This is the only option in a standalone server environment and is a common option for Web Servers installed outside a firewall. The use of this topology requires that each time the plug-in configuration file is generated, it is copied from the machine where WebSphere Application Server is installed to machine where the server is running.

If the Web server is defined to an unmanaged node, you can do the following:

  1. Check the status of the Web server.

  2. Generate a plug-in configuration file for that Web server.

  3. If the Web server is an IBM HTTP Server and the IHS Administration server is
    installed and properly configured, you can also:

    • Display the IBM HTTP Server Error log (error.log) and Access log (access.log) files.

    • Start and stop the server.

    • Display and edit the IBM HTTP Server configuration file (httpd.conf).

    • Propagate the plug-in configuration file after it is generated.




You cannot propagate an updated plug-in configuration file to a non-IHS Web server that is defined to an unmanaged node. You must install an updated plug-in configuration file manually to a Web server that is defined to an unmanaged node
