Defining remote server instances to the ColdFusion MX
Administrator
You can use the Cluster Manager to add ColdFusion MX server instances running on other
computers; however, you must first define them to the ColdFusion MX Administrator through
the Add Remote Server Instance area of the Instance Manager page.
Note: To define a remote server instance, it must be running. You cannot start or stop servers
remotely.
To define a remote server instance to ColdFusion:
1.
Open the ColdFusion MX Administrator for the cfusion server in a browser
(http://hostname:8300/CFIDE/administrator).
2.
Select Enterprise Manager > Instance Manager.
3.
Specify the following in the Add Remote ColdFusion Instance area:
■ Server name
■ The IP address or DNS name of the remote host.
■ The remote port of the remote server. To determine the remote port, open the
jrun_root/servers/servername/SERVER-INF/jndi.properties file and note the port number in
the
java.naming.provider.url property.
4.
Click Add Remote ColdFusion Server.
