Service in SICF can not be excuted

Question

start of configuration description #############*
HA configuration
Dual stack, Java Add-in (BI Java and EP) installation based on NW04s BW ABAP
Hostname = SAPDB (Central instance, DB+CI on this server, no DI)
Virtual Hostname = sapdbserv
FQDN = sapdbserv.picchealth.com
NAT for this server 10.252.0.125 on server side and 10.252.1.125 on client side
CI instance = 10 (DVEBMGS10)
Kernel 201 with ABAPBASISJava patch level 19
end of configuration description #############*
Our problem:
in SMICM, ICM (http port 8010) work well.
http://sapdbserv.picchealth.com:8010/index.html works.
http://sapdbserv.picchealth.com:51000/irj works.
in SICF, when I test ping (and all others), then I get error
"404 Not found
The requested resource does not exist" in http://sapdbserv.picchealth.com:8010/sap/public/ping
When I shutdown Java, test ping again then I got error
"503 Service not available
Detail: Cannot reach external Application Server on localhost:51000"
Not sure why HTTP service is redirected to Java port. Actually there is not log info. recorded in java default trace even Java is running.
When I set trace level = 1(default), no info in dev_icm. When I set trace level = 3, got long log file in dev_icm but no clue for HTTP 404 error.
I noticed note 1292397 which is similar but it does not solve our problem.
*) Seems not a network problem
*) Enough spare space in FS
*) License OK
*) Gateway OK
Any suggestion?

Hi,
I don't really understand your HA configuration. Is this a 2 nodes cluster ? If yes why is there only one alias.
I use a SAP R/3 4.7 system running on a Windows 2003 MSCS cluster.
We have 2 DNS aliases for it : one for the SAP CI and one for the Oracle database.
Each of these 2 DNS aliases has its own virtual IP address.
example : sapalias.domain.xx for SAP CI
                dbalias.domain.xx for oracle DB
The icm/host_name_full parameter is set to sapalias.domain.xx
To be able to use BSP applications, we have to use the FQDN in the URL.
Like : http://sapalias.domain.xx:port/sap/bc/bsp/sap/z_mybsp
On a dual stack system, usually you use the ABAP HTTP port in all URLs and it is the job of the ICM to direct the processing to the abap stack (all URLs beginning with /sap) or to the java stack (all other URLs).
