Add Web Directors

You can add web directors. Each web director defined in pdm_edit.pl must have a unique CGI I/F value. The CGI I/F name is automatically generated for you; however, the suggested CGI I/F name can be manually overridden to reflect any CGI naming scheme you want.

Consider the following before you add web directors:

• If you are using an HTTP server like IIS or Apache, you must have a correctly named pdmweb_d[#].exe in the $NX_ROOT/bopcfg/www/wwroot directory.
• If you are using a servlet server like Tomcat, you get a sample web.xml.tpl file. This file is named <hostname>-web.xml.tpl and is located in the working directory. Use this file to replace the $NX_ROOT/bopcfg/www/CATALINA_BASE/webapps/CAisd/WEB-INF/web.xml.tpl file on the appropriate server.

To add web directors

1. From the Web Director submenu, select a, and press Enter.

   A prompt requests the hostname.

2. Press Enter to select the default value of Primary or enter a value for the hostname of the secondary server.
3. Press Enter.

   A prompt requests a name for the CGI Interface.

4. Press Enter to accept the displayed value or manually enter the value you want, and press Enter.

   The Web Director submenu appears and the newly added web director is listed.
