3.1.2 Response of JP1/AJS3 - View

(a) Connection (user authentication)

When you connect from JP1/AJS3 - View to JP1/AJS3 - Manager, the authentication server is accessed to authenticate the user. If the computer running the authentication server has not been started, or multiple authentication servers are used, there will be a corresponding increase in processing time.

(b) Updating unit definition data and acquiring actual schedule and actual result data

The processing at JP1/AJS3 - Manager differs according to the type of request from JP1/AJS3, but since in the main it will be searching for, referencing, and updating definitions and statuses stored in the disk, it tends to be affected by disk performance.

Processing will take time particularly if there are many component elements in the Monthly Schedule window, the Daily Schedule window, or the JP1/AJS3 - View window (Summary Monitor window), and jobnets with many execution generations are displayed, or when job group statuses are displayed in the JP1/AJS3 - View window (Main window). The performance of the CPU also affects calculation of execution schedules.

To increase stability of performance, you must estimate the entire load on the server, taking into account the frequency of disk access by other applications, the circumstances of CPU use, and so on.

(c) Operations on units

When a lengthy fixed-execution registration is done for a jobnet with many component elements, or the registration of a jobnet with a very large number of logs to keep setting is canceled, the processing time at JP1/AJS3 - Manager will be long. Under conditions such as these, communications processing might time out at JP1/AJS3 - View, and the message KAVV402-E (A timeout occurred while waiting for the response from the connection-destination) might be displayed. Consider reviewing operations to avoid long processing times in JP1/AJS3 by shortening the fixed registration period, setting a smaller number of logs to keep, and so on. If you cannot review operations, change the timeout value by following the corrective action advised for the error message KAVV402-E. The default for this timeout value is 30 minutes. The appropriate timeout value will differ depending on the nature of the processing at JP1/AJS3 - Manager, the condition of the network, and the performance of the computer. Measure the response time in the environment you are using and estimate an appropriate value. After measuring a sufficiently large response time, set a value larger than the measured value as the timeout value (there should be some leeway).
