Highly available portal without webcontext

NicolasGIS — Wed, 26 Aug 2020 17:26:43 GMT

Hello,

Is it possible to deploy a highly available with an external load balancer (no web adaptor) configured to forward request without any webcontext configured ? That is to say:

https://mysuperportal.company.com would redirect to https//mysuperportal.company.com/home

In the documention, it is stated:
"If you do not use ArcGIS Web Adaptor, ensure that the load balancer context name is only one level deep. For example, you can have a load balancer URL such as https://lb.domain.com/enterprise, but you cannot have a load balancer URL such as https://lb.domain.com/myorg/enterprise.":

Configure a highly available portal—Portal for ArcGIS | Documentation for ArcGIS Enterprise

But does it work with no level deep ?

Thanks !

No, it probably won't work. The software expects a context, (https://portal.domain.com/portal/...) in many places, and likely won't handle things well if that doesn't exist.
