Not RESTing on my laurels - IBM BPM Standard 7.5.1.1 and the ubiquitous localhost

I hit another localhost issue with Process Admin: -


when I clicked into the Process Inspector UI: -


which returned: -


Here's the detailed exception: -

Again, here's the reason why: -

WAS Console ( ISC ) > Services > REST services > REST service providers

I changed the Host name or virtual host in a load-balanced environment from: -

localhost

to: -



Note - this needs to be done for BOTH REST endpoints: -

and restarted my AppTarget cluster.

Job done :-)

For the record, the five REST endpoints are summarised here: -
