Configuring HP-Apache2 for Optimal Performance


Siebel eBusiness Applications will run slowly on HP-Apache2 Web servers unless you make the following changes to the httpd.conf configuration file.

  1. Edit the /etc/privgroup file. If it does not exist, create it. Add the following entry to the file:
  2. apache_group_name RTPRIO

    where:

    apache_group_name = the group name containing the username that owns the Apache server. Save the file and exit.

  3. In the shell, execute the following command:
  4. setprivgrp -f /etc/privgroup

  5. Add the following to the file $APACHE_ROOT/bin/startapa, at the beginning of the file:
  6. rtprio 127 -$$

    Save the file and exit.

Deploying a Reverse Proxy Server with IHS and HP-Apache2

To implement Siebel eBusiness Applications on a Web server that is placed behind a proxy server, you can deploy only Siebel applications that support the standard interactivity client on a Web server instance that is placed behind a reverse proxy server. You cannot deploy Siebel employee applications, such as Siebel Call Center, or other Siebel applications that support the high interactivity client.
