224 Part 8: Hosting WEBDEV sites • the WebSocket server status (locked or not). The box can be checked to directly block access to the WebSocket server during the update. The "WebSockets" tab also allows you to: • Delete the selectedWebSocket server(s) from the table ("Delete" button). This only deletes the WebSocket server from the administrator (not the disk). • Refresh the display of webservices found in the table ("Refresh" button). This refresh operation is used to check the presence of a webservice in the administrator after its setup. • Add a WebSocket server in the table ("Add" button). 2.5 General configuration The "Configuration" tab is used to define the default connection options for the WEBDEV sites found on the server and managed by the administrator. The "Configuration" tab is used to: • Configure the connections. • Configure sessions and requests. • Manage remote debugging. • Manage users (Deployment version only). The following options can be used to configure the connections: • Maximum number of connections for the server : Maximum number of simultaneous connections allowed for all the sites managed by the administrator (a connection = a Web user). • Maximum number of connections for a site : Maximum number of simultaneous connections allowed for each site managed by the administrator. This number can be modified for each site in the "Sites" tab. • Maximum number of connections of a user to a site : Maximum number of simultaneous connections allowed for a given Web user to each site managed by the administrator. If this parameter is set to zero, the user who tries to connect simultaneously to the same site will be automatically disconnected then reconnected. If this parameter is greater than zero, an error message will be automatically displayed after x simultaneous connections. This number can be modified for each site ("Sites" tab). The "Only one connection per automatically recycled IP" option limits to one the number of connections of a user. The same connection will be reused. To allow multiple connections from the same IP address (users through a router or proxy), select "Limits the number of connections to" and specify the number of connections allowed for the same IP address. The following options are used to configure sessions and requests: • Disconnect idle users since : Maximum connection time allowed without any action performed by the user. When this time is exceeded, the Web user is automatically disconnected and an error message is displayed. This number can be modified for each site in the "Sites" tab. • Duration of AWP contexts : Validity period of AWP contexts. As soon as the specified duration is over and if no new request was performed, the context file is deleted. • Duration of Webservices contexts : Validity period of webservice contexts. As soon as the specified duration is over and if no new request was performed, the context file is deleted. • Maximum request duration : Maximum timeout allowed between the beginning of an action performed by the user (via a button or a link) and the display of a response. When this time is exceeded, an error page is displayed but the Web user is not disconnected. • Maximum task duration : Used to limit the runtime duration of a WEBDEV scheduled task or delayed task. The task will be automatically stopped when this duration is exceeded. • Allow pre-launched sessions. : This option is used to manage the pre-launched sessions on the WEBDEV Application Server. This option is used to optimize the connection time to the WEBDEV sites and Webservices found on the server. If this option is checked, you must: • modify the project to manage the pre-launched sessions properly. • configure the site or the webservice in order to specify the number of necessary pre-launched sessions ("Sites" or "Webservices" tab, "Parameters" button).
