Re: Improve performance of IWS web UI?

We stopped using the IWS web UI from the beginning for two reasons:
- It's so slow it's unusable (each IWS server has 1,000/1,200 active
services)
- It's much easier to make mistakes using the interface.

Our services are very standardized, so we have a single program that
handles republishing the services (the parameters are in the database), and
the few non-standard services have specific programs with all the
parameters set.

I see the beginnings of that ... but when I try to access a server in
Navigator, I get

Not sure why deploying a web service would be slow. But I can see things
being slow when having dozens of web services deployed ad you try to go
throw the pages in search of a web service. In this case, I would

suggest

you use the filter.

We do have a lot of services ... but even the filter takes minutes to
complete.

In meantime, ensure that enough memory is allocated to subsystem.

All our services are running fine and they are in the same subsystem as
the admin instances.

Alternatively, you could use the Qshell scripts.

Yeah, that works for some things, but not for redeploying a service that
needs to be modified (parameters, etc).
