Is it possible to set up a URL redirect in RTC 3.0 using WAS such that a request to a URL like

http://myserver.ibm.com

will be redirected to

https://myserver.ibm.com:9443/ccm/web.

In the default setup, if I change the WAS "WC_defaulthost" to port 80, http://myserver.ibm.com/ccm/web should automatically redirect to https://myserver.ibm.com:9443/ccm/web, correct?

Now, is there a way to simplify the first URL so that instead of using http://myserver.ibm.com/ccm/web, I can just have http://myserver.ibm.com redirect to https://myserver.ibm.com:9443/ccm/web?

It is possible as this is how Jazz.net works (we have a proxy forwarding to an app server)
I would use a real httpServer though

Do we have documentation for both approaches? I need to know exactly how to set up IHS if that is the recommendation, and I need to know how to configure WAS if that is the best way.

Why use IHS -- what are the advantages? It seems in simple cases it would be easier to just configure WAS.

It doesn't have to be IHS; WAS can use IIS as it's front end. Can't
fully answer the "why" but by definition "Websphere Application Server"
is an *app* server and
http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/wasinfo/v7r0/index.jsp?topic=/com.ibm.websphere.base.doc/info/aes/ae/twsv_plugin.html
has all the details on how to setup a HTTP server to front WAS.

Yes, it is possible to set up a URL redirect in Rational Team Concert using WebSphere Application Server..
Got to Applications > Application Types > WebSphere enterprise applications  Locate and click on the RTC application  ccm_war.ear

In the application detail page, click on Session management.
Under the Enable cookies section, enable the Cookie path option and set it to /ccm/web.
Then Save and Restart
the result should be something like that
