Use the pdadmin command so that you can limit worker thread consumption on a per-junction basis.
Specify hard and soft worker thread limits on a specific junction by using the following options in the pdadmin server task create command.
This option sets a value (percent) on the junction that defines the soft limit for consumption of worker threads. As in the global soft limit setting, this option causes warning messages to be displayed when the junction uses more worker threads than allowed by the setting.
This option sets a value (percent) on the junction that defines the hard limit for consumption of worker threads. As in the global hard limit setting, this option causes warning messages to be displayed when the junction tries to use more worker threads than allowed by the setting. In addition, the user is sent a 503 Service Unavailable message.
This example must be entered in one line.
pdadmin> server task webseald-<server-name> create -t tcp -h <host-name>
-l 60 -L 80 jct-point
Per-junction settings always override the global settings in the WebSEAL configuration file. Ensure that the settings on a specific junction do not adversely affect the policy that is established by the global settings.
