  • 1.  WebSphere Edge server Migration

    Posted Thu February 14, 2013 06:19 AM
    Hi All,

    I need to migrate WAS 6.1 to 8.0, we have edge servers as well. Request you to help me for migrating Edge server 6.1 to 8.0. While doing migration we need to take the .cfg file script files backup. After instlling Edge server 8.0, we need to place .cfg and script files in same location(Edge 8.0). After completing this, we need to add alias or loop back for edge server load balancing.

    I have created new setup for development with edge server, i have added loop back or alias for edge server cluster load balancing. I dont have good knowledge on edge server setup. If we restart AIX server, after restarting server edge server loop back or alias ip not coming while restrating server(ifconfig -a). We need to add loop back or alias again, this is not the good practice. How we can add the loop back on primary and secondary servers on AIX.


    Thanks, Chinna.

    Hi Chinna,

      Have you try to configure through /etc/rc.net file?

      rc.net File Format for TCP/IP

    Hi Gabriel,

    I am adding loop back Ip through command, can we configure through rc.net file.

    In my development servers, i have not placed Edge server script file in bin directory.  Edge server scripts are(goStandBy, goUp) not available in edge servers bin. 

    Please suggest one i place script files in bin directory, if we restart server, while restarting Edge server loop back also appears in server or not.

    How can i add loop back in AIX servers?

    We need to add edge server loop back in both(primary and seconday) servers?

    Thanks,
    Chinna.
