Configure developer mode on Linux

The developer mode allows you to improve start up performance and to configure WebSphere Portal for development. This file explains how to configure and unconfigure the development mode option. Developer mode is for a development environment only and should not be used in a production environment.

Install WebSphere Portal with the Base installation option.

This task modifies the following components:
JVM


Portlets

Run the ./ConfigEngine.sh enable-develop-mode-startup-performance -DWasPassword=foo task, from the WP_PROFILE/ConfigEngine, immediately after installing WebSphere Portal to develop portals and portlets. Then stop and restart the WebSphere_Portal server to propagate change.

Prepare the remote Web server for developer mode. See the appropriate link below for information.

Run the ./ConfigEngine.sh disable-develop-mode-startup-performance -DWasPassword=foo task, from the WP_PROFILE/ConfigEngine, to revert back to a production server. Then stop and restart the WebSphere_Portal server to propagate change. You can run the disable-develop-mode-startup-performance task when you are done developing the portal and portlets, if the development settings are not adequate for a special development situation, or if a problem found on the production server cannot be recreated on the development server.
