2. Run the cd command to change to the directory that contains the wsadmin tool:

   cd /QIBM/ProdData/WebASE/ASE5/bin

3. Start wsadmin.

4. At the wsadmin prompt, run this command to identify the cell and assign it to the cell variable:

   set cell [$AdminConfig getid /Cell:myCell]

   where myCell is the name of your application server cell.

5. Run this command to to create a new virtual host:

   $AdminConfig create VirtualHost $cell {{name newVHost}}

   where newVHost is the name of the new virtual host.

6. Run this command to save your changes:

   $AdminConfig save
