You can enable and disable portal light mode.

About this task

To do this, follow the appropriate procedure:

Procedure

  • Enable: To enable portal light mode, change to the directory wp_profile_root/ConfigEngine and run the configuration task
    ./ConfigEngine.sh|bat enable-portal-light-startup-performance -DWasPassword=password
  • Disable: To disable portal light mode, change to the directory wp_profile_root/ConfigEngine and run the configuration task

What to do next

Notes:
  • When portal light mode is enabled, a portlet application is not started by a user request, but by the first standard HTTP request that occurs and renders a portal page that contains the portlet application on the server. Direct access to the portlet, for example an AJAX request does not start the portlet.
  • Limitations : When portal light mode is enabled, the following limitations apply:
    1. If you manually stop applications, for example by using the WebSphere® Integrated Solutions Console or the wsadmin user ID, and they are then accessed by users, the applications are automatically started again.
    2. When you use the activation task ./ConfigEngine.sh|bat activate-portlets to activate all portlets, this starts all portlets, including those that are set for lazy load.
