Missing Filter Option
original post [[3]]
Option to create a filter disappears
This option was present when the workspace was first set up. Today the option wasn't grayed out or anything - it just wasn't there.
This is standard behavior if you have "Show Filter Pools" selected.

Ghost Image for Install V6
original post [[4]]
installing v6 - warning when using ghost images
- When you install WDSC, it creates a default instance of the WAS 6.1 test server.
- The config files for the test server are created with the hostname of the PC where the install was done.
- When the ghost image is then copied to each PC, the config files contains an incorrect hostname and the test server won't start
- (we always run into this at COMMON and the System i Technical conferences).
You can fix this in one of two ways:
1.
- Double click on the test server and switch from using RMI to SOAP for the communications.
- You could do this on the ghost image then it would be set on each copy, although I have never tried this.
2.
- After the images are installed, edit the file that contains the hostname and update it with the correct hostname (including domain name) for that PC.
- The file you need to edit is something like:
C:\Program Files\IBM\Rational\SDP\6.0\runtimes\base_v6profiles\default\config\cells\YANTZ1Node01Cell\nodes\YANTZ1Node01\serverindex.xml
You need to update all the hostname and host XML attributes that reference the hostname of the original PC.
