Configuring Tomcat to Work with a Load Balancer
When Jamf Pro is behind a load balancer, you must configure the remote IP valve, proxy port, and scheme in Tomcat's server.xml file. The Load Balancing settings in Jamf Pro allow you to configure these settings without having to edit the server.xml file manually.
Requirements
To configure Load Balancing settings using Jamf Pro, Jamf Pro must be installed as the “ROOT” web app, and the user running the Tomcat process must have read/write access to Tomcat’s server.xml file.
