The Configure Web Interface wizard creates the default Web Interface sites, getting the Web Interface ready for use. The wizard prompts you to choose which Administration Service will be used by the Web Interface you are configuring. The following options are available:
-
Use the Administration Service instance running on the same computer as the Web Interface.
-
Use the Administration Service instance running on a different computer.
This option requires you to supply the fully qualified domain name of the computer running the desired instance of the Administration Service.
-
Let the Web Interface choose any Administration Service instance that has the same configuration as the given one.
This option requires you to supply the fully qualified domain name of the computer running the Administration Service instance of the desired configuration. If your environment employs Active Roles replication, this must be the computer running the Administration Service instance whose database server acts as the Publisher for the Active Roles configuration database.
To start the wizard, click Configure in the Web Interface area on the Dashboard page in the Configuration Center main window. For more information and step-by-step instructions, see the “Initial configuration” topic in the “Installing and configuring the Web Interface” section in the Active Roles Quick Start Guide.
