Proxy Cache Special Conditions

A proxy cache enables the Netra j 3.0 server to place web pages that are frequently visited by users into a local cache, thereby reducing the wait time for those web pages to load. The Proxy Cache Service module of the Netra j 3.0 software is functional only if you designate a UNIX File System (UFS) exclusively for the proxy cache storage area. This file system must mount at /var/opt/SUNWcache. Ideally, an additional disk (either internal or external) is used to provide the space needed for the proxy cache service.

Instructions for adding a Small Computer System Interface (SCSI) disk to the Netra j 3.0 server and configuring the Proxy Cache Service module are provided in the "Proxy Cache Reference" and "Using Proxy Cache Services" chapters of the Netra j 3.0 Administrator's Guide.
