Associating an HTML rendering server with WebSphere Portal Express
After selecting a display number for the HTML rendering server (X virtual frame buffer for X server), associate this server with the installed IBM® WebSphere® Portal Express profile.
Before starting these steps, have a WebSphere Portal Express profile running on your System i5 system. Make note of the name of your WebSphere Portal Express profile.

http://system_name.com:admin_port/admin
where system_name.com is the name of your System i5 server and admin_port is the port assigned to the administrative console of the server1 server. This port number varies depending on the environment and the base port specified for the WebSphere Portal Express profile.
