Anyone done this?
Seems like a common thing to do in a corporate intranet. We're trying to do it, having "mixed" results:
We're trying to enable access to multiple instances of PDMLink via a single load balancer (for instance, https://lbr.myorg.com/Windchill-Dev, https://lbr.myorg.com/Windchill-Uat, etc.). Also interesting to note that the load balancer terminates SSL, so PDMLink gets requests via HTTP even though user agents willall use HTTPS.
We've had some success by setting "wt.server.codebase", "wt.httpgw.mapCodebase" and enabling RMI Tunneling. Everything appears to work, except Info*Engine administrator pages (like "/infoengine/jsp/admin/index.jsp"), don't use Windchill's "URLFactory" to map the URLs, so they (incorrectly) redirect back to the original app's original "context root" - i.e. resulting in an invalid URL, like https://lbr.myorg.com/Windchill).At this point, I'm anticipating some other (yet undiscovered) problems will surface as well.
Would love to share know-how or experiences with in-the-knows or been-there-tried-thats about this!
