Administering the Teamcenter server proxy

The Teamcenter server proxy manages HTTP communications for Teamcenter server (TcServer) requests. It accepts client requests over secured pipes using a proprietary protocol and submits the requests over HTTP to the web tier endpoint. Use the tcserverproxy.xml file to set HTTP configuration elements related to Teamcenter server proxy behavior. (The file is located in the USERPROFILE\Siemens\cfg\tccs\TCCS_CONFIG directory.) These settings override any corresponding tccs.xml file settings applied to Teamcenter server proxy behavior. (Settings in the tcserverproxy.xml file do not affect corresponding tccs.xml file settings as applied to FCC behavior.) Use the tspstat utility to administer and obtain run-time statistics from the TcServerProxy component. Note TCCS and all its container applications run simultaneously. Starting, stopping, or reconfiguring TCCS (or any of its applications) propagates the same action to all. The tcserverproxy.xml file contains HTTP configuration elements related to the TcServerProxy component. These settings override any corresponding tccs.xml file settings. It contains the following configuration elements: maxconnectionsperhost Sets the maximum number of connections through each proxy server to a single host. The default value is 8. totalmaxconnections Sets the maximum number of connections through each proxy server to all hosts. The default value is 10. connectiontimeout Sets the time period that a connection remains idle before it is closed. The default value is 30000. sockettimeout Sets the maximum amount of time (in milliseconds) the HttpClient component (the TCCS HTTP transport library) waits for data when executing the method. The default value is 0, which specifies an infinite time-out. stalechecking Enables the HttpClient component (the TCCS HTTP transport library) to perform determine if the active connection is stale before executing a request. The default value is false. Typically, stale checking is disabled to improve performance. maxretriesreverseproxy Sets the maximum number of times an HTTP request is attempted when receiving an authentication challenge from a reverse proxy server. The default value is 5. idleconntimeoutms Sets the time period (in milliseconds) that a connection remains idle before it is closed. The default value is 30000. idleconnintervalms Sets the time period (in milliseconds) for the interval between closing each idle server connection. The default value is 10000. httpversion Indicates the HTTP protocol version. The default value is version 1.1. Note HTTP version 1.1 supports chunking, version 1.0 does not.
