FlashCONNECT Administrator’s Guide 91
The Startup tab options are:
Option Description
Maximum Servers Supported Specifies the maximum number of concurrent FlashCONNECT
connections.
Enter the maximum number of connections to allow. Each
increment uses 28 bytes of additional shared memory and
may be set as high as desired, subject to the limits of your
system. The default is 256 (default is 16 on Linux).
NOTE—When all connections are depleted, control functions
are no longer accepted by FCService, so an additional server
slot is automatically created for administrative use.
Searches before server
unavailable status
Number of times FCService searches for an available
connection before ending the search. The default is 3.
Pause between searches (sec) Time in seconds FCService waits between searches for
available connections. The default is 1.
Environment Variable Name Space Sets the upper limit on the number of environment variables
passed to D3 from the FlashCONNECT server.
• Each environment variable uses one byte.
• Each letter of the environment variable name uses one
byte.
• The entire set uses one byte.
• The minimum value (and default value) is 4096.
For example: If only two environment variables are passed to
D3 (HTTP_ACCEPT and AUTH_TYPE) the limit could be set to:
23 (len(HTTP_ACCEPT)+1 + len(AUTH_TYPE)+1 +1)
FlashCONNECT Service Port TCP/IP port number that the service listens to for D3
FlashCONNECT servers (phantoms) to connect.
It can be any valid TCP/IP port number, but must match the
port number provided with the WWW-START command.
The default is 1505.
Heartbeat Period (range 0-86400
seconds)
Number of seconds FCService waits between sending check
messages to D3. Range 0 = no heartbeat to 86400. See
Configuring the Heartbeat
for a discussion about setting this
value.
The default is 0.
