Re: Prestart CGI jobs?

When a request comes in, Apache will route it to an idle job, if one exists. If no idle job exists, a new job is spawned. I'd like to pre-spawn a number of jobs to reduce the likelihood of a job needing to be spawned on-the-fly.

I figure I can have a batch job the makes a number of HTTP calls in rapid succession, but no need to reinvent the wheel if such capability already exists.


Thanks

Do you mean autostart specific HTTP server? Sure.

From memory, any HTTP server that doesn't specifically use AutoStart as
an

option for the instance will use the default from CHGHTTPA.

I personally set CHGHTTPA to Autostart(*NO) and then for each instance I want to autostart specify it in the instance parameters (which are in QUSRSYS file QATMINSTC member name of the HTTP instance).

Example:
-apache -d /www/conf -f bvstoolsv5.conf -AutoStartY
