Use the Advanced tab to fine-tune the
settings for a component at runtime.
Changes made to these settings affect only the current instance of the
component. If you stop the Component Manager or run the Refresh
All Configurations command, the component settings revert to the
values entered via the Process Configuration Console.
The Advanced tab includes these fields:
Name
Description
User Name
A valid user name. The user name serves as JAAS credentials for
identification and permissions on both the Process Engine
and any external systems that are accessed. See Java
Authentication and Authorization Service (JAAS).
The user must have Query & Process access to the component
queue, as defined in the Process Configuration Console.
The Component Manager reports an error when starting the component
if the user does not have sufficient access rights.
Password
The password associated with the user name.
Configuration Context
The name of the set of login modules JAAS uses for this component. The context you enter
must be defined in taskman.login.config. For further
information, see Developing
Component Integrator-Based Workflow Applications in the Help for Process Java API.
Concurrent Threads
The number of concurrent threads to execute for this component.
Use 1 for a system with a single CPU. This number can be increased
for a system with multiple CPUs.
Polling Rate
If the component is inactive, this is the amount of time in milliseconds
between polls of the queue by this component to look for work; 1000
is equivalent to polling once per second. Frequent polling can impact
system performance if the queue tends to be empty. As long as there
is work in the queue the component never goes inactive and polling
does not occur.
If you have specified an event
port, the Component Manager responds to both the component's
polling rate and to new events as they occur. For example, if a
component's polling rate is 10000 (10 seconds), the Component Manager
automatically queries the associated component queue every 10 seconds.
If after 3 seconds an event comes in, the Component Manager again
queries the component queue and processes any additional work found
there.
Exception Submap
The submap to be used when this component encounters exceptions.
The default is Malfunction. See About
system maps for more information on submaps.
