Disable PortletServingServlet
Extensions for the portlet deployment descriptor are defined within a file called ibm-portlet-ext.xmi, which is an optional descriptor used to to configure WebSphere extensions for the portlet application and its portlets. For example, you can disable the PortletServingServlet servlet for the portlet application in the extended portlet deployment descriptor.
The ibm-portlet-ext.xmi extension file is loaded during application startup. If there are no extension files specified with this setting, the portlet container’s default values are used.
The default for the portletServingEnabled attribute is true. The following is an example of how to configure that a PortletServingServlet servlet is not created for any portlet on the portlet application.
Example
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <portletappext:PortletApplicationExtension xmi:version="1.0" xmlns:xmi="http://www.omg.org/XMI" xmlns:portletappext="portletapplicationext.xmi" xmlns:portletapplication="portletapplication.xmi" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmi:id="PortletApp_ID_Ext" portletServingEnabled="false"> <portletappext:portletApplication href="WEB-INF/portlet.xml#myPortletApp"/> </portletappext:PortletApplicationExtension>
