问题
I have the following implementation in testing environment,
- Front-end Server [IBM HTTP Server + IBM Websphere plugin],
- WLServer1 [IBM Worklight 6.2 + IBM DB2 10.1+ Liberty Farm 8.5.5.1] and
- WLServer2 [IBM Worklight 6.2 + IBM DB2 10.1+ Liberty Farm 8.5.5.1].
plugin-cfg.xml has been generated from each Worklight server and merged.
The request[http] from multiple devices has been directed to worklight server's alternatively, once the merged plugin-cfg.xml has been deployed in Front-end server's IBM Websphere plugin.
How I can implement the same to serve HTTPS request.
And also I have implemented the "UserCertificateAuthenticationProject" from the Worklight modules which connects the device[HTTPS] to Worklight server directly.
Note Tested it on Android only.
Help me to understand, How I can achieve HTTPS in Test environment via IHS.
What should be the procedure in Production environment?
Note IBM Worklight 6.2 supports Android, IOS, Blackberry & Windows, so I have to implement in all platforms.

It sounds like the problem you are having is similar to this one: https://stackoverflow.com/a/21914147/2245921 The Unresponsive Host error occurs for one of two reasons:
- Your device cannot reach your server (they are not in the same network)
- The device does not trust the server's certificate
Since you can connect to your HTTP connection, it is not #1, so it should be #2. The answer to the other question I pointed to above should fix your problem. Make sure to turn on trace-level logs in the WL Logger so that you can see the exceptions regarding untrusted certificates.
Edit: To expand on this answer; to use HTTPS, your server needs an SSL certificate to identify itself, otherwise the device has no proof that it is connecting to the right server and not to some random server that could be malicious. You should already have a certificate that you are using in your server; if you don't, then read on.
You usually get an SSL certificate from one of two places: you either use a certificate issued to you by a trusted Certificate Authority (e.g., Verisign), or you create one for internal testing purposes. In your case, you probably want to create your own, so you should follow the "Client X.509 Certificate Authentication and User Enrollment" getting started here, specifically the parts that talk about generating the server certificate.
Once you have that certificate set up, you should configure your server to use it; for that, follow the instructions here. After doing this, the last step is to have your device trust your server's certificate. For this, follow the last part in the getting started above, which shows you how to make your iOS/Android device trust the server. You would have to look up how to do this on Windows and Blackberry, too.
After this, you should now be able to connect successfully via HTTPS. (Always make sure that when you get an "Unresponsive host" error, that you can still connect to the HTTP console via the browser, to make sure that you are connected to the same network as your server. I know you already did this as you specified in your question, I'm just mentioning it as a reminder since it is easy to forget this.)
