1.10 Changing Configuration Settings for Requests and Connections

You can configure the number of client requests and database connections that Filr is able to support.

If you have an extremely large Filr site and you need to make numerous client requests and database connections, you might see improved performance by increasing these settings.

  1. Follow the steps in Section 1.1, Changing Configuration Options for the Filr Appliance.

    You can modify the following configuration options:

    Max Threads: The maximum number of simultaneous client request threads that Filr is able to support. The default is 250 threads.

    Max Active: The maximum number of database connections that can be allocated from this pool at the same time. The default is 300.

    Max Idle: The maximum number of database connections that can be idle in this pool at the same time. The default is 300 connections.

    Scheduler Threads: The size of thread pool used for background execution of scheduled tasks. The default is 20.

    Max REST Requests (upload/download): This is the max number of concurrent upload and download requests made by the Filr desktop and mobile applications. Specifying a max number of concurrent REST requests ensures that the Filr server does not exceed capacity. If the max number is reached and requests continue to be made, the server responds to requests when it is no longer busy. The default is 50.

  2. Click OK, then click Reconfigure Filr Server for your changes to take effect.

    This stops and restarts your Filr server. Because this results in server downtime, you should restart the server at off-peak hours.
