The Load Balancing Plugin will be co-located when installed on an Apache HTTP Server. This means that the plugin configuration and log files will be located in the Apache HTTP Server installation directory.
The plugin installer will not work with Apache HTTP Server configurations that have been installed with GlassFish Web Stack or with a particular operating system bundle. The installer will only work with Apache configurations that have been directly installed as a standalone package.
Web Server Installation Directory
Specify the Apache HTTP Server installation directory. Use the Browse button to navigate to the appropriate directory; for example:
/space/apache2.2/install
DAS Certificate
A Domain Administration Server (DAS) certificate is required if you want to push load-balancer xml over the wire to Web Server configurator directory. To use this feature, the Apache Web Server must be configured in SSL mode and have an SSL listener enabled. For more information, see Configuring Apache Http Server in the Configuring Web Servers for HTTP Load Balancing in the Oracle GlassFish Server 3.1 High Availability Administration Guide.
After configuring the Apache Server for SSL, use the certutil
command to export the DAS certificate from GlassFish Enterprise Server.
keytool -export -rfc -keystore <domain-dir>/config/keystore.jks -alias s1as -file glassfish.crt -storepass <keystore-password>
Where:
domain-dir
is the name of the directory
corresponding to existing domain in Oracle GlassFish Serverkeystore-password
is the password of the keystore
For example:
keytool -export -rfc -keystore /space/glassfishv3/glassfish/domains/domain1/config/keystore.jks -alias s1as -file glassfish.crt -storepass changeit
DAS Certificate File
Specify the full pathname for the DAS Certificate file.
