And there's no difference, other than the direction of the path

You keep referring above to "doc-base", but it sounds like you mean
"appBase". A Host has an *appBase* for its contexts, a *Context* has
a docBase. From my prior example:

Note that "appBase" is set for each. Now you can either create the
directories, e.g. '/apps/A/ROOT/' or deploy '/apps/A/ROOT.war'


You'll need to describe each webapp in either e.g.
  $CATALINA_HOME/conf/Catalina/serverA/ROOT.xml
or
  /apps/A/ROOT/META-INF/context.xml


To use the manager on each, copy the provided 'manager.xml' file
into each of

$CATALINA_HOME/conf/Catalina/serverA/manager.xml
$CATALINA_HOME/conf/Catalina/serverB/manager.xml

Now you should be able to get to 'http://serverA/manager/html' and
'http://serverB/manager/html' (after a Tomcat restart, of course).


HTH!
