Web services Connection pools management
Presentation
The console is used to configure the groups of Web-services connections for the Safe X3 Web Server. An additional tab is available within the Safe X3 Web Server configuration panel. To access the configuration of a group of connections, the Safe X3 Web Server must be configured and the services launched. If it is not the case, the tab is not active.
It is mandatory to publish solutions in order to configure groups of Web-services connections. These groups are configured in order to establish a physical connection to a solution folder using a configured processing server of the solution.
