|
| Propagate Plug-in | Choosing this action will copy the plugin-cfg.xml file from the local directory where the Application Server is installed to the remote machine. If you are using IBM HTTP Server V6 for your Web server, WebSphere Application Server can automatically propagate the plug-in configuration file to remote machines provided there is a working HTTP transport mechanism to propagate the file. |

If IBM HTTP Server is defined on an unmanaged node, start the IBM HTTP Server administration server before you can start and stop IBM HTTP Server.
If the status is unavailable, the node agent or IBM HTTP Server administration server is not running in that node, and start the node agent before you can start the Web server.
|
| Started | The Web server is running. |
|
| Stopped | The Web server is not running. |
|
| Unavailable | Status cannot be determined.
A Web server with an unavailable status might, in fact, be running but has an unavailable status because the application server that is running the administrative console cannot communicate with this Web server. |
