Use this page to create, delete or modify a generic server cluster. Creating a generic server cluster is the next step towards generating the ability to route requests to a non-IBM WAS or a pre-V6 WebSphere Application Server cell, after creating the proxy server.
To view this administrative console page, click Servers > Generic Server Clusters.
The system administrator can use the Generic Server Cluster panel to configure external servers, which are non-IBM WAS or a pre-V6 WebSphere Application Server, to create a logical cluster the proxy server can route work to. A generic server cluster defines the server endpoints that URI groups that are mapped to.
After you have created a generic server cluster, you want to create cluster members and define the cluster endpoints. Select the generic server cluster you created and click Ports.
