  3. Add each additional Access Manager instance to the Platform Server List under Instance Name:

    1. In the Platform Server List under Instance Name Name, click New.

    2. In New Server Instance, add the Server and Instance Name. For example:

      • Server: http://amserver2.example.com:80

      • Instance Name: 02

    3. Click OK to add the instance.

    4. After you have added all instances, click Save.

  4. Add the Realm/DNS alias for each additional Access Manager instance:

    1. In the Access Manager Console, click Access Control and then the root (top-level) realm under Realm Name.

    2. Under Realm Attributes, add the Access Manager instance to Realm/DNS Aliases and then click Add. For example: amserver2.example.com
