Default

Machine Name

localhost:50004

HTTP Port

TCP/IP port for Calculation Services. The default is 80, which is the standard HTTP port. However, if traffic in your implementation travels through a different port, you can override the default value.

80

Server ID

This unique identifier for the calculation server should exactly match the calc_server_id field in Web.xml. Note that this value is case-sensitive.

Calculation Server Startup Mode

Defines whether the Calculation Server starts automatically, manually, or automatically after a delay. If the Calculation Server is started on a delay, the length of the delay is defined by the Calculation Server Startup Delay Time

Dispatch Server Startup Mode

Defines whether the Dispatch Server starts automatically, manually, or automatically after a delay. If the Dispatch Server is started on a delay, the length of the delay is defined by the Dispatch Server Startup Delay Time

Speed Rating

This figure is used to compare speeds of different servers in the landscape. For example if a reference machine in the landscape is rated a 10, other machines in the landscape can be rated proportionally to this machine. That is, a machine that is twice as slow as the reference machine would be rated as a 5, while a machine that is twice as fast would be rated a 20.

100

Total CPU’s

The total number of CPUs on the machine.

1

Max CPU-Intensive Threads

CPU intensive threads are the threads that are likely to commandeer CPU time while running. To optimize performance of the WFD Calculation Server, this figure should never exceed the number of CPUs on the machine that is dedicated to the system Calculation Services. If the machine is dedicated to Calculation Services, and does not host any other applications, then Max CPU Intensive Threads should equal Total CPUs.

1

Ping Time

This is the time interval, in seconds, at which Active Dispatch Server pings other Dispatcher Services. Other Dispatch Servers remain inactive as long as they receive regular pings.

Action / Notes

Select a Calculation Server for processing

The server in the list of defined Calculation Servers

The attributes of that server appear in the fields on the right of the list.

Add a new Calculation Server

Add Server

A new server appears in the list of Calculation Servers. Default attributes appear in the fields on the right of the list. Complete the configuration of the new server by assigning values to those fields.

Remove a Calculation Server

Remove Server

Note that the system does not confirm your choice to remove the server, so be sure to confirm your selection before choosing Remove.

Save your changes

Save

The system saves your changes.

Undo your changes

Cancel

Changes made in error to your server definitions are ignored and reset to their previous settings.

Save your Calculation Server definition(s)

Export settings

This action saves all configuration information in properties files stored in <J2EE Engine Directory>\sisopt\export, and overwrites previously saved files. If you want to keep multiple versions of configurations, you should first store your previous files somewhere else.

Load previously saved Calculation Server settings

Import settings

Configuration information is loaded from the properties files stored in <J2EE Engine Directory>\sisopt\export. If you have multiple versions of previously stored configurations, please ensure that the correct files are in that directory location.
