5.5 Optimizing the Apache Web Server for the Middle Tier Server

For optimal performance of the ZENworks Middle Tier Server on NetWare, you must configure the Apache Web Server ThreadsPerChild configuration parameter from the default of 50 to 512.

To optimize the Apache Web Server on NetWare 6.x, you need to edit the ThreadsPerChild parameter in httpd.conf. You can find the file in the sys:\apache\conf folder. The first few configuration parameters in the file look like this:

ServerType standalone
ServerRoot "sys:/apache"
PidFile logs/httpd.pid
ScoreBoardFile logs/apache_status
Timeout 300
KeepAlive On
MaxKeepAliveRequests 100
KeepAliveTimeout 15
ThreadsPerChild 50

Change the value of the ThreadsPerChild parameter from 50 to 512. However, if this parameter is not listed by default in the file, then you must add the parameter and set the value to 512.
