FS6200 Server System Implementation Guide - Public Support ...

1. From the Component View tab, expand the components ISM and s-Par ® , right
click ePortal, and then select Launch ePortal Browser.
2. In the logon dialog box, type the usercode and password for ePortal Manager and click
OK.
Notes:
The ePortal Manager website is launched and the home page is displayed.
• If you cannot access the ePortal Manager website, see “Cannot Access the ePortal
Manager Web Site” in Section 7 of this guide.
• The FS6200 Server has two I/O and Specialty Engine Modules, you can find out which
is the active ePortal system by checking the Host Name property when you click the
ePortal. The Host Name property of the active ePortal system has –Active as a suffix.
The Host Name property of the stanby ePortal system has –Standby as a suffix.
ePortal Personality Module Naming
It is possible that the ePortal PM name in ePortal Manager website might not correspond
to the ePortal PM Environment name in Platform Console. For example, if the ePortal
Manager website lists the PM-1 as Partition Number 3 in the Personality Modules detail
page, the corresponding ePortal PM Environment name in the Platform Console is ePortal
PM 3 Environment. Therefore, if you need to restart the PM-1 from the Platform Console,
you must restart the ePortal PM 3 Environment from the Platform Console.

Setting Up and Operating the ePortal Specialty Engine
Refer to the “Developing a ClearPath ePortal Business Application” section of the
ClearPath ePortal Business Implementation and Operations Guide for instructions on
developing an ePortal application.
ePortal Specialty Engine Operational Considerations for a
System with Two ISMs
This subsection discusses operational considerations for the ePortal Specialty Engine for a
system configured with two I/O and Specialty Engine Modules (ISMs).
When a system is configured with two ISMs, an independent ePortal system is running in
each ISM. However, only one ePortal system is considered as an active ePortal system.
The second ePortal system is considered as a standby ePortal system.
Note: Only the active ePortal system should be connected to the front-end public
network. Connecting both active and standby ePortal Specialty Engines to the public
network at a same time causes problems accessing the ePortal applications and would
cause unpredictable results.
As a result, only virtual servers running on the active ePortal system can service the
ePortal application requests from ePortal clients.
