How to get here
- From the home page, click the > tab. The page appears.
After making changes, click . Navigate to the Service Administration page and restart the service.
The New Web Calendar for the Web Client requires no services. This Web Calendar service was kept to allow a link to the old web calendar available in the Web Client. This link (located in the upper right corner of the Web Client) will only display as long as the Web Calendar Service is running. The new Web Calendar uses the WorkgroupShare databases and does not require services.
Use to specify the Web Server Port , Directory, Maximum Work Threads, SSL and Thread Pooling Settings for the Web Calendaring Server.
SSL Settings
- Select this check box to use Secure Sockets Layer to encrypt communications with clients, and to accept SSL connections in addition to normal connections.
- Enter the Web SSL Port on which the Web Calendaring server listens for an SSL-based HTTP request if you enabled SSL. If you used the default Web Server Port (8484), you can assign any TCP port number here -- the default is 8485. If you used the standard web server port (port 80), then set the SSL port to the standard SSL port 443.
- Select this check box to set the Web Calendaring server to accept only SSL- based HTTP connections; normal HTTP connections are not accepted.
Thread Pooling Settings
- Select this check box to create a thread pool for handling HTTP requests from clients. IMail Web Calendaring creates up to 64 Max Work Threads to process requests. If this option is cleared, IMail Web Calendaring creates a thread to handle each request (either persistent or normal) and after handling that request, destroys the thread. IMail Web Calendaring can create a thread pool for handling HTTP requests (from the browser) on this TCP port. Using thread pooling reduces the overhead involved in creating and closing threads. However, if all threads in the pool are in use, then additional HTTP requests are denied. Also, threads reserved for use by IMail Web Calendaring are not available to other processes running on your server.
- Enter the interval (in seconds) used by IMail Web Calendaring to check the status of the thread pool. If the current number of work threads is less than Max Work Threads, new threads are created. This option is used only when thread pooling is enabled. The default value is 10 seconds.
- Select this check box to close a thread after the HTTP request is processed completely. This option is used only when thread pooling is enabled. IMail Web Calendaring creates a replacement for closed threads on the next poll time, which is set in Thread Check Time. When this option is cleared, the thread is kept open and made available to process another request.
