Users can change the default BPEL-specific configurations by editing the bps.xml file using the information given below.

File Details

  • File Name: bps.xml
  • Location: $PRODUCT_HOME\repository\conf
  • Purpose: To configure important aspects of the business process server such as data sources, the threads, BPEL extensions, process cleanup scheduling etc. Using ths file, you can change the default configurations according to your specific business requirements.

  • When the BPEL server is invoked, before any attempt to route the message exchange to a process.
  • When the BPEL server is invoked, after the message exchange has been routed to the process.
  • When the BPEL server is invoked, after the message exchange has been routed to the process and it has been determined that a new instance needs to be created.
  • When a partner link is invoked.

<tns:SyncWithRegistry>

XML Syntax

<tns:SyncWithRegistry>

Description

By default all the BPEL packages are read from the file system. If you need to Synchronize the file system BPEL repository, set the <tns:SyncWithRegistry> element to true. This checks the timestamp of the BPEL packages in the file system against the BPEL packages in the registry. If they do not match then the BPEL package in the registry is copied to the file system.

Mandatory/Optional 
Sample Implementations

<tns:InMemoryInstanceTimeToLive>

XML Syntax

<tns:InMemoryInstanceTimeToLive>

Description

The property 'InMemoryInstanceTimeToLive' can be used to limit the time-to-live of in-memory instances. This setting is useful to avoid memory leaks related to in-memory processes that may get 'stuck' during execution and never terminate (time should be specified in milliseconds).

Mandatory/Optional 
Sample Implementations
 <tns:InMemoryInstanceTimeToLive>600000</tns:InMemoryInstanceTimeToLive>

^ Back to Top

<tns:ODESchedulerThreadPoolSize>

XML Syntax

<tns:ODESchedulerThreadPoolSize>0</tns:ODESchedulerThreadPoolSize>

Description

Configure this property to control the number of threads in the ode scheduler thread pool. This value should always be smaller than the maximum number of db connections configured for the bps persistance store data source. If you are using both human tasks and bpel with b4p extension activity configure this values to be less than half of maxActive database connections number.

ThreadPoolSize < maxActive Connections => Only using BPEL processes

ThreadPoolSize < (maxActive Connections) / 2 => Using both BPEL processes and Human Tasks

Always try to provide as much database connections as possible to BPS.

Mandatory/Optional Mandatory

 

Sample Implementations
 <tns:ODESchedulerThreadPoolSize>50</tns:ODESchedulerThreadPoolSize>

^ Back to Top

<tns:UseDistributedLock> 

XML Syntax

<tns:UseDistributedLock>true</tns:UseDistributedLock>

Description

This property is used to enable hazelcast based synchronization mechanism to prevent instance state from being concurrently modified from multiple bps nodes.

Mandatory/Optional Mandatory if clustering is enabled

 

Sample Implementations
<tns:UseDistributedLock>true</tns:UseDistributedLock>
