Actually, if that's all there is for the virtual hosting, the OP doesn't need it at all.  Simply remove the second <Host> (the one not pointed to by the <Engine> defaultHost attribute); all requests will end up at the same place anyway.

In general, it's a bad idea to just copy configuration elements from one level of Tomcat to another.  Better to understand what they do in the older version, read the doc for the new one, and generate the necessary config as appropriate.  Some subtleties can easily catch you out otherwise.
