Setting Your Portlet Time Out Limit
You can specify how long to wait for a portlet to load
on your My Pages.
- In the portal
banner, click My Account.
- On the My
Account page, click Display Options.
- Under Page and Portlet Settings,
next toMaximum time to wait for a portlet,
select a time out option:
- If you want your portal administrator to determine how long
your My Page waits for a portlet to load, select Let the
portal administrator set this for me. This is the default
setting.
- If you want to specify how long your My Page waits for a portlet
to load, select the option next to the drop-down list, then, in the
drop-down list, select the maximum number of seconds you want to wait
for a portlet to load before your My Page displays without the portlet.
If your My Page displays slowly or displays time-out errors,
you might want to change the time out setting. If your My Page
takes a long time to finish loading, you might want to decrease the
portlet time-out. Your My Page will load faster, but portlets might
display time-out errors or out-of-date content. If portlets frequently
display time-out errors, you might want to increase your portlet time-out.
Some portlets need more time to request information from remote computers
or databases. If you increase your portlet time-out, your page will
load more slowly, but it will be less likely to display time-out errors
(time-out errors can still occur if there are problems with the portlet).
- When you are done
specifying all your display settings, click Finish to save your changes and return to the My Account page, or click Cancel to return to the My Account page without saving
your changes.
