Configuring Multiple Symbolic URLs and Hosts for Alternative Execution Locations

You can configure multiple symbolic URLs and symbolic URL hosts, to execute applications in alternative locations (for example, for testing or demonstration purposes).

Note: When you use an alternative symbolic URL host, all symbolic URLs in the application that are configured to use that host will use the alternative host name. In contrast, when you use alternative symbolic URLs, each symbolic URL used in the application must have its own alternative symbolic URL. Therefore, you can reduce the effort required to execute the application in an alternative location by using an alternative symbolic URL host rather than a symbolic URL.
