rdisp/http_check

Use

This parameter controls the check made by the dispatcher on whether a dialog work process free is for processing HTTP(S)/SMTP calls. The number of available dialog work processes depends on the number of free dialog work processes and on the number of work processes that must be kept free for the dialog application.

If there is no free work process currently available for HTTP(S)/SMTP, the dispatcher places the request in the queue and processes it later.

This check protects the application server from being overloaded with HTTP(S)/SMTP requests.

The profile parameter rdisp/rfc_check performs the same checks but for RFC requests.

Value Range and Syntax

The following values are possible:

  • 0: The check is not made.

  • 1: The check is made, that is, the start of all HTTP/SMTP requests is monitored.

You can set the parameter dynamically in productive operation (transaction RZ11). Though these settings will be lost when the instance is started up the next time.
