HOW TO CHANGE THE URL FOR SHARE POINT CENTRAL ADMINISTRATION



So, basically if you want to extend the Central Administration web application (using GUI or psconfig command) to run on multiple servers, and when you click on SharePoint Central Administration icon you're still redirected to a specific SharePoint server instead of been redirected to the Load Balancing URL. Anyway, as it turns out the URL has to be changed via registry on all SharePoint servers.
To change the URL for SharePoint 2013 Central Administration URL, Open Powershell:
Set-ItemProperty -Path "HKLM:\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Shared Tools\Web Server Extensions\15.0\WSS\" -Name CentralAdministrationURL -Value 'https://CENTRALADMINURL/'
To get the URL for SharePoint 2013 Central Administration URL, Open Powershell:
Get-ItemProperty -Path "HKLM:\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Shared Tools\Web Server Extensions\15.0\WSS\" -Name CentralAdministrationURL
