Increase the Number of WebI Connections

This section provides steps to increase the default number of WebI connections.

The Web Client embeds various BPM Reporting reports. To support this, you must increase the default number of parallel connections.

To increase the number of parallel connections, follow these steps:

1. Log into BusinessObjects Enterprise Central Management Console (CMC).
2. Click Servers.
3. Expand Server Categories, and click Web Intelligence.
4. Under Server name, double-click WebIntelligenceProcessingServer.

   The Properties window displays.

5. In the Properties window, under Web Intelligence Processing Service, enter the appropriate number of parallel connections.

   The default value is 50. It is recommended that you increase the value to at least 100.

Alternatively, add more servers. Adding one more server with the default of 50 parallel connections yields the same number of connections (100) as the preceding steps.

On large production systems, it is recommended that you increase the number of servers and then lower the number of parallel connections on each of those servers. However, note that each user who runs the Web Client occupies a number of WebI connections.

Note: It is recommended that you do not have more than one Web Intelligence Report server per available CPU core.
