Testing theWebSphere® cluster

You can test that the cluster is working correctly simply by pointing your browser to the load-balancing Web server, and verify that you can access the Sterling Configurator Visual Modeler Web application using the context name that you specified when you deployed the Web application. For example:

http://loadbalancer/Sterling/en/US/enterpriseMgr/matrix

By logging in simultaneously from different browsers, and by examining the application server logs on each application server, you should be able to verify that the browser requests are being distributed among the application servers by the load-balancer. You should also be able to verify that if an application server goes down, that the load-balancer stops routing requests to that application server.
