Command View XP AE Device Manager Server Properties 123
7-4-7 logger.hicommandbase.MaxFileSize
This property sets the maximum size of each of the rolling backup Device Manager trace log files. The
specified size is assumed to be in bytes unless you specify kB for kilobytes, MB for megabytes or GB
for gigabytes. Valid values are between 4096 and 2147483647. Even if this directive is not found in
the properties file, an internal default value of 1 MB will be used.
Default: 1 MB
7-5 Dispatcher Properties
Dispatcher properties are contained in the dispatcher.properties file.
This properties file contains a set of configurable directives pertaining to the operation of Device
Manager server’s dispatcher layer, including properties that allow the fine-tuning of various
background processes (daemons) and the optimization of the thread-priority for service agents.
The default directory for the Windows
®
dispatcher properties file is:
• c:\Program Files\CVXPAE\DeviceManager\HiCommandServer\config
7-5-1 server.dispatcher.agent.priority
This property assigns the priority for Device Manager agent threads. Valid values are between 1 and
10 (1 = minimum priority; 5 = normal priority; 10 = maximum priority). You should change the default
value only if you need to fine-tune the agent dispatcher’s performance. The recommended values are
between 5 and 8, and you should not set it to the maximum thread priority (9-10), because while that
may cause individual requests to execute faster, it is likely to cause an overall degradation in
performance when multiple users are sending concurrent requests.
Default: 5
7-5-2 server.dispatcher.message.timeout
This property sets the timeout for pending response messages (in minutes) before they are expired
(purged). A pending message consists of a response from a long-running process (for example,
discovery of a storage array) that has not yet been either polled by the client or sent to the client via
the Device Manager notification service.
Default: 15 minutes
7-5-3 server.dispatcher.message.timeout.in.processing
This property sets the timeout for processing messages (in minutes) that are not completed by some
reason.
Default: 720 minutes
7-5-4 server.dispatcher.daemon.pollingPeriod
This property defines the polling interval (in minutes) for the background agents responsible for
checking component status and configuration version. A value of zero will disable these polling
agents.
Default: 5 minutes
7-5-5 server.dispatcher.traps.purgePeriod
This property defines the purging interval for stale SNMP traps or alerts (in minutes). A value of zero
will disable the purging of traps from the server.
Default: 5 minutes
7-5-6 server.dispatcher.startTimeOfIgnoringConnectionAlert
This property defines the start time of the interval for stopping SNMP communication alert. Accessing
the disk array that is in regular reboot will incur this alert.
