You can modify an existing on demand router (ODR) 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 ODR from this panel are under On demand router properties.
To view this administrative console page, click Servers > On demand routers > ODR_name . On the Configuration tab, you can edit ODR setting fields.
Indicates a logical name for the ODR. ODR names must be unique within a node.
This is a read-only field.
Enabling this option can reduce the startup time of an ODR. 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 ODR to activate development mode.
The default setting for this option is false, which indicates that the ODR is not started in development mode. Setting this option to true specifies that the ODR starts development mode with settings that speed server startup time.

Default | false |
Select this field to start the ODR on multiple threads. This option might shorten the startup time.
Specify this option if you want the ODR components, services, and applications to start in parallel, rather than sequentially.
The default setting for this option is true, which indicates that the ODR 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 start in parallel. Set the weight of an application with the Starting weight option on the Applications > Enterprise Applications > application_name page of the administrative console.
