Configuring Process Router defaults

The steps for configuring Process Router defaults depend on your system interface:

Workplace

Process Router defaults are controlled in the Site Preferences for the Application Engine. The default Process Router is localhost:32771/vwrouter. You can change the following:

  • host name
  • port
  • router name

For detailed instructions, see Router in the Application Engine Site Preferences Help.

FileNet Web Services Client

You can set the default Process Router, add RMI ports, and set the default RMI port. These settings are located in:
<FileNet Web Services Client installation directory>\Redist\WF_Extras\globalinfo.asp.

To set the default router

If you run multiple routers, you can set the default router that users access when they log on to a Process Engine. The default router name is "vwrouter". To change the default, in the globalinfo.asp file search for all occurrences of the string "vwrouter". Change the value in quotes to the name of the router you want to use as the default.

To set the default RMI port

By default all routers run on RMI port 32771. To use a different port as the default, change all occurrences of the string "32771" in the globalinfo.asp file to the desired number.

To add RMI ports

To make routers running on RMI ports other than the default available to users at logon, those ports must be specified as follows:

  • All RMI ports on which one or more routers run must be listed in the globalinfo.asp file. In the file, search for the string "registeredRouterPortList". If the port you want to use is not listed, add it to the list.
  • By default, the list includes port 32771; if you do not run routers on that port, remove it from the list. The list should only include ports on which you run routers for this web application.
Open Client

You can set the default Process Router, add RMI ports, and set the default RMI port. See "Set Open Client site preferences" in FileNet Open Client Administrator's Help.

To set the default router

If you run multiple routers, you can set the default router that users access when they log on to a Process Engine. The default router name is "vwrouter". See "Set the default Process Router" in FileNet Open Client Administrator's Help.

To set the default RMI port

By default all routers run on RMI port 32771. To use a different port as the default, see "Configure RMI port numbers" in FileNet Open Client Administrator's Help.

To add RMI ports

To make routers running on RMI ports other than the default available to users at logon, see "Configure RMI port numbers" in FileNet Open Client Administrator's Help.
