Configuring web service parameters

By default, five clients can use the web services concurrently. You can increase or decrease the number of clients to fit your environment.

About this task

If additional users attempt to use the web services over the number of clients permitted, the requests are placed in a queue and started after previous requests complete. All queued requests are executed in the order they are received.
