Create and manage virtual targets


A virtual target represents a target for a resource group, both at the domain level and in a domain partition. It defines the access points to resources, such as one or more host names, a URI prefix, and the managed servers or cluster to which the virtual target is itself targeted. Virtual targets are similar to the virtual hosts on WebLogic Server. Like virtual hosts, virtual targets provide a separate HTTP server (web container) on each target.

To create a virtual target:

  1. If you have not already done so, in the Change Center of the Administration Console, click Lock & Edit (see Use the Change Center).
  2. Create a new virtual target
  3. Configure general virtual target properties
  4. Configure HTTP log file settings for a virtual target
  5. Configure HTTP for a virtual target
  6. Target virtual targets to servers
  7. Any (non targeting) change to a virtual target that is in use by a running partition requires a restart of the partition.
  8. To activate these changes, in the Change Center of the Administration Console, click Activate Changes.
    Not all changes take effect immediately—some require a restart (see Use the Change Center).
