Hello experts,
Our Content navigator was deployed in WebSphere 8.5. In order for our user be able to access CMOD reports through a web browser but I want to simplify the URL to a more friendly and easy to remember URL.
Our CMOD v9 server has multiple instance. (CMODPROD,CMODUAT...)
ex. from - http://WASSrvrName:9080/navigator/?desktop=CMODPROD
to - http://CMODPROD
from - http://WASSrvrName:9080/navigator/?desktop=CMODUAT
to - http://CMODUAT
Is there a way we can do this?
Thanks,
Kit
I've seen this done before using 3DNS from F5 networks, maybe talk to your infrastructure folks and see if they can setup an alias, or something along those lines.
Or maybe a hosts file change.
You can also set this up at the DNS/webserver level.
Register the CMODPROD/CMODUAT nicknames with your corporate DNS server, and point it to your WAS server IP address.
Then configure the HTTP server to be a VirtualHost, and inside that 'directive', you can redirect it to a different URL.
Take a look at this page: https://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/rewrite/remapping.html Specifically under 'Canonical Hostnames'.
Report back to let us know how you solved this one!

Justin always has a more simpler way of saying things than I do. :D
