Configuring promotion on a single host

You can configure promotion on a single host by running two instances of WSRR on two WebSphere® Application Servers.

To configure promotion on a single host in this way, your application servers must either have different names, or you must take steps to resolve conflicts that arise if both application servers have the same name (these conflicts will arise even if different port numbers are used for each instance of WSRR).

If your application servers do have the same name, take the following steps for each WebSphere Application Server:
  1. Open the administrative console.
  2. Select Servers > Application servers > servername > Java and Process Management > Process Definition > Java Virtual Machine > Custom Properties.
  3. Set the custom property com.ibm.websphere.orb.uniqueServerName to true.
  4. Save your changes.
  5. Restart both servers.
