Multi-NIC System Considerations
If you experience web service communication problems with a server attempting to connect to an Optimize system running within My webMethods, that is running on a multi-NIC system (also referred to as a multi-homed system), you should make the following configuration adjustment to the Analytic Engine wrapper.conf file to prevent the server from referencing the Optimize system via "localhost". This change applies only to customers who wish to bind their web services to a specific IP address, and it should make resolution of the host via host name function properly on a multi-NIC system.
Note:
Changing this setting could affect any system that uses the REST services using localhost.
To make this change, use the following steps.
1. Open the wrapper.conf file located in the following folder: Software AG_directory /optimize/analysis/conf
2. Locate the following line in the wrapper.conf file: wrapper.java.additional.19=-Dopt.wm.glue.ignoreLocalHostCheckOnBinding=false
3. Change the value for the ignoreLocalHostCheckOnBinding property to true, so that the line read as follows: wrapper.java.additional.19=-Dopt.wm.glue.ignoreLocalHostCheckOnBinding=true.
4. Save the file and close it.
5. Restart Analytic Engine.
