Configure the endpoint of the application resources in the environment entries of MobileFirst Operations Console and the MobileFirst Administration services application.

About this task

Follow this procedure when you must change the endpoint of the MobileFirst Administration services.

Procedure

  1. Log in to the WebSphere® Application Server console.
  2. Select Applications > Application Types > WebSphere enterprise applications.
  3. Click Worklight Administration Services.
  4. In the "Web Module Properties" section, select "Environment entries for Web modules".
  5. Assign the appropriate values for the following environment entries:
    1. For ibm.worklight.admin.proxy.host, assign the host name.
    2. For ibm.worklight.admin.proxy.port, assign the port number.
    3. For ibm.worklight.admin.proxy.protocol, assign the external protocol.
  6. Click OK and save the configuration.
  7. Select Applications > Application Types > WebSphere enterprise applications.
  8. Click Worklight Console.
  9. In the "Web Module Properties" section, select "Environment entries for Web modules".
  10. For ibm.worklight.admin.endpoint, assign the full URI of the MobileFirst Administration services; That is, the URI of the worklightadmin.war file.
    • In a scenario with a firewall or a secured reverse proxy, this URI must be the external URI and not the internal URI inside the local LAN.
    • You can use the asterisk (*) character as wildcard for specifying that the MobileFirst Administration services use the same value as MobileFirst Operations Console. For example, *://*:*/wladmin means use the same protocol, host, and port as MobileFirst Operations Console, but use wladmin as context root.
  11. Click OK and save the configuration. For a complete list of JNDI properties that you can set, see List of JNDI properties for MobileFirst Server administration.
