Server Tools
- In WebSphere Studio Version 5.0, Binary projects may not be published correctly to a WebSphere remote server. This fix resolves the problem.
- In WebSphere Studio Version 5.0, the timeout value for connecting to the IBM Remote Agent Controller for remote server support is not user configurable. This could cause timeout problems with slow networks. This fix adds user configurable timeouts to allow the user to extend the timeout to meet
the needs of their network. Once this fix has been applied, the following steps will enable the configurable timeouts:
- Open the New Server wizard.
- Select either the WebSphere v4 or v5 remote server. Click Next.
- Click Next again from the WebSphere Remote Server Settings page. Ignore any dialogs that appear.
- Click Cancel to close the wizard.
- For each existing WebSphere server, open it up in the editor and make any change. Save and close the editor.
After these steps have been performed, there are two places where the timeout can be configured:
- For remote server creation, (when creating a WebSphere v4 or v5 remote server) edit the [workspace directory]/.metadata/.plugins/com.ibm.etools.websphere.tools.common/pluginData.properties file with a text editor. Edit the following property to the required timeout.
DEFAULT_REMOTE_SERVER_QUERY_INFO_TIMEOUT_ID=20000
(The value is specified in milliseconds)
- For an existing WebSphere v5 remote server, edit the [server name].rwsi file from the Server project with a text editor. Change the following property to the required timeout:
remoteServerLaunchCommandQueryTimeout="60000"
(The value is specified in milliseconds).
Once you have saved the server, perform a Refresh to make sure that the changes are applied.
- In WebSphere Studio Version 5.0, when multiple users share the same WebSphere remote server machine, the server's tranlog may become corrupted. This fix gives each user their own copy of the tranlog to prevent the corruption.
