Modifying Cache Settings with Custom Property Files

You can create a .property file and configure cache setting individually for the OSGi components of each cache type that My webMethods Server supports. Settings, specified in a property file apply to a single cache type, and only on the current node. Settings, specified in the cache.xml file for My webMethods Server override individual cache configurations in .property files.

To modify cache settings using property files

1. In a text editor, create a .properties file with the same name as the fully-qualified name of the cache class.

2. Add the required properties in key=value pairs, each pair on a separate row, without quotes and delimiters.

3. Save the properties file in the following location:

SoftwareAG_directory\profiles\MWS_instanceName\configuration\com.softwareag.platform.config.propsloader

Example

To configure the alias cache for My webMethods Server:

1. Create a file with name com.webmethods.portal.service.cache.impl.AliasCache.properties.

2. Set the maximum size of the of the alias cache to 1002222 entries by adding the following entry in the file: maxSize=1002222

3. Save the com.webmethods.portal.service.cache.impl.AliasCache.properties file in the \profiles\MWS_default\configuration\com.softwareag.platform.config.propsloader directory.
