Portal server performance tuning tool

Run the performance tuning tool on a new deployment to tune the servers that are based on performance recommendations. Note that the performance tuning tool does not tune the database, the LDAP user registry, the web servers, or the operating system. In a clustered environment, it tunes only the cluster members. For advanced tuning, refer to the performance tuning guides.

1. Review the HCL WebSphere Portal Performance Tuning Guide

2. Make a copy of directory...
   PortalServer_root\installer\wp.config\config\TuningTask

3. In the copy, set properties the following files:
   tuning.properties
   CacheManagerService.properties
   CommonComponentConfigService.properties
   ConfigService.properties
   CPConfigurationService.properties
   NavigatorService.properties
   RegistryService.properties
   VirtualPortalConfigService.properties
   WCMConfigService.properties
   AccessControlDataManagementService.properties

4. Run the tune-initial-portal-performance task

   cd wp_profile_root/ConfigEngine \
    ./ConfigEngine.sh tune-initial-portal-performance  \
        -DWasPassword=password  \
        -DPortalAdminPwd=password  \
        -DTuningPropertiesDirectory=local_dir_path
   

   In a clustered environment, run this task on each clustered node.

   Set -DAuthoringServer to true to turn off the Web Content Manager advanced cache feature and any tuning features that are specific to a Subscriber server.

   To run the tune-initial-portal-performance task on vertical cluster members:

   cd wp_profile_root/ConfigEngine \
   ./ConfigEngine.sh tune-initial-portal-performance  \
       -DServerName=vertical_cluster_servername  \
       -DWasPassword=password  \
       -DPortalAdminPwd=password  \
       -DTuningPropertiesDirectory=local_dir_path
   

   Run this task on each vertical cluster member on each node in the cluster.
