Proxy cluster member settings
Use this page to manage the members of a proxy cluster. A proxy cluster of proxy servers is managed together and participate in workload management. When a proxy server is part of a proxy server cluster, the only HTTP proxy server setting that can be set at the proxy server level is Local outbound TCP address. The other HTTP proxy server settings must be set at the proxy cluster level. From the console...

Member name
Name of the proxy server in the proxy cluster. On most platforms, the name of the server is the process name. The member name must match the name of one of the servers that are listed on the proxy servers page.
Run in development mode
Enable this option may reduce the startup time of an proxy server. This might include JVM settings, such as disabling bytecode verification and reducing Just in Time (JIT) compiler compilation costs. Do not enable this setting on production servers.
Specifies to use the JVM settings, -Xverify and -Xquickstart, on startup. After selecting this option, save the configuration and restart the server to activate development mode.
The default setting for this option is false, which indicates that the server is not started in development mode. Setting this option to true specifies that the server is started in development mode, using settings that decrease server startup time.
Information Value Data type Boolean Default false
Parallel start
Whether to start the server on multiple threads. When you start the server on multiple threads, the server components, services, and applications start in parallel rather than sequentially, which might shorten the startup time.
The default setting for this option is true, which indicates that the server uses multiple threads when it starts. Setting this option to false specifies that the server uses a single thread when it starts, which might lengthen startup time.
Information Value Data type Boolean Default true
Start components as needed
Select this property if you want the proxy server components started as they are needed by an application that is running on this proxy server.
When this property is selected, proxy server components are dynamically started as they are needed. When this property is not selected, all of the proxy server components are started during the startup process. Therefore, selecting this property usually results in improved startup time because fewer components are started during the startup process. If you are running other WebSphere products on top of the Application Server, make sure that those other products support this functionality before you select this property.
