Global SSL Environment with Basic Load-Balancing

You can use web director in a global SSL environment with basic load-balancing. Web director balances load across all web engines according to each web engine willingness value. Each web engine can service login and nonlogin requests. The HTTPS protocol must be used for all communications between web clients and the web server.

For each web engine under web director control, set the web director parameters in the web engine ‘<Host_Name>-web[#].cfg’ as follows:

• UseDirector Yes
• WebDirectorSlumpName (do not change this value)
• WillingnessValue [1 through 10]
• RedirectingURL (the preappended protocol value must be ‘https’)
