Configuring remote processes

To improve the performance of the Web application, you can configure Rational Asset Manager to perform some of its processing using a Java executable other than the one in the Web container.

Before you begin

To configure remote processing, you must be a repository administrator.

Procedure

  1. In the Web client, click Administration.
  2. Click Configuration.
  3. In the Remote Processes section, select the Java runtime environment that you want to use for Rational Asset Manager processes that could be handled outside the Web container:
    • Use Web Server's JRE: Select this option to have all work done by the Java runtime environment in the Web container.
    • Provide the path to a Java executable on this node: Select this option and enter the full path to a Java executable file (that is, java.exe or javaw.exe) on the server where Rational Asset Manager is installed (for example, E:/WebSphere/AppServer/java/jre/bin/javaw.exe).
    • Use the Java executable path set into the CQJRE JNDI variable: Select this option if you are using a cluster environment and the JRE exists in a different location on every node. Using this option allows you to provide a JNDI variable.
    • Communication port range: Enter the lowermost number of a range of ports for Rational Asset Manager to use to communicate with the remote processes. For example, if a starting port number of 4545 is specified, then ports 4545 through 4554 may be used.
    • Maximum heap size in megabytes:: Define the amount of physical memory available for the Java application.
  4. Click Save.
