Each WAB contained within a deployed asset must be mapped to a virtual host. WABs can be installed on the same virtual host, or dispersed among several virtual hosts.
To view this panel in the administrative console, click the following path:
You use a virtual host to associate a unique port with a module or application. The aliases of a virtual host identify the port numbers defined for that virtual host. A port number specified in a virtual host alias is used in the URL that is used to access artifacts such as servlets and JavaServer Page (JSP) files in a Web module. For example, the alias myhost:8080 is the host_name:port_number portion of the URL http://myhost:8080/sample.
To check existing virtual hosts by using the administrative console, click .
Unless you want to isolate your WAB from other WABs or resources on the same node (physical machine), default_host is a suitable virtual host. In addition to default_host, WebSphere® Application Server provides admin_host, which is the virtual host for the administrative console system application. admin_host is on port 9060. Its secure port is 9043. Do not select admin_host unless the WAB relates to system administration.
