Proxy server configuration
You can modify an existing proxy server to perform advanced routing
options, such as routing requests to a non-WebSphere Application Server cell,
and to perform caching. The options to configure the proxy server from this
panel are under Proxy server properties.
To view this administrative console page, click Servers > Proxy Servers
> server_name
On the Configuration tab, you can edit proxy server setting fields.
Configuration tab
- Name
Indicates a logical name for the proxy server. Proxy server names
must be unique within a node.
- Run in development mode
Enabling this option can reduce the startup time of a proxy server.
This time can include Java Virtual Machine (JVM) settings, such as disabling
bytecode verification and reducing just-in-time (JIT) compilation costs. Do
not enable this setting on production servers.
Specify this option if you want to use the -Xverify and -Xquickstart JVM
settings on startup. After selecting this option, save the configuration and
restart the proxy server to activate development mode.
The default setting for this option is false, which
indicates that the proxy server is not started in development mode. Setting
this option to true specifies that the proxy server
is started in development mode with settings that speed server startup time.

- Parallel start
Select this field to start the proxy server on multiple threads.
This option might shorten the startup time.
Specify this option if you want the proxy server components, services,
and applications to start in parallel, rather than sequentially.
The default setting for this option is true, which
indicates that the proxy server is started using multiple threads. Setting
this option to false specifies that the server does
not start using multiple threads which might lengthen startup time.
The order in which the applications start depends on the weights that you
assigned to each of them. Applications that have the same weight are started
in parallel. You set the weight of an application with the Starting weight option
on the Applications > Enterprise Applications > application_name page
of the administrative console.
