I have a particular request where we need to replace the main ARIS server hostname by a Load Balancer alias.
Current installation: https://hostname/#default/home
Current Load Balancer alias: https://aris.my-company.cloud
From server side, how to replace the hostname with the LB alias?
Expected result: https://aris.my-company.cloud/#default/home
It's important to note that SSL is enabled and we intend to enable Single sign-on as well. We also intend to reach out the server via ARIS Client and ARIS Connect.
Possible solution:
I was thinking of using the hosts file of the server but it didn't work. Another assumption is to use the default Apache installation within ARIS but I don't know the impact of doing that or even HOW TO do that.
Any example is much appreciate.
Thanks in advance.
Hi Pablo
You can use these commands:
ACC+ localhost> reconfigure loadbalancer_<s,m,l> +HTTPD.servername="<AliasofARISLoadbalancer>"
ACC+ localhost> reconfigure loadbalancer_<s,m,l> + HTTPD.zookeeper.application.instance.host=”<ServerAlias>”
Regarding the SSL certificates usually should matches the name of Alias, however in same cases could use (*) parameter to define the "domain", example (*.)arisconnect.com .. I mean The SSL-certificate needs to fit to the name the user enter in the browser/client. In all other cases the certificate is invalid

Thank you for the quick reply @Andre.
An additional question: When the SSL is enabled, the normal behavior of ARIS is to replace https://localhost with https://<hostname>. Is there any way to avoid this replacement and keep ARIS reachable?
Thanks in advance.
