that use JPA, it is recommended you use this page to provide default
values. To increase the portability of your applications, you can
use this page to configure the default JPA settings for applications
running on this server instead of defining the <provider> element
in each persistence unit in your applications. The JPA settings defined
here are used for the persistence unit of an application only when
the application does not define the JPA settings for that persistence
unit.
EJB asynchronous methods settings Use this page to modify settings on the work manager used
in support of Enterprise JavaBeans asynchronous
methods.
EJB cache settings Use this page to configure and manage the cache for a specific
Enterprise JavaBeans (EJB) container. To avoid errors from attempting
to overload the cache, determine the cache absolute limit. Multiply
the number of enterprise beans active in any given transaction by
the total number of concurrent transactions expected. Then, add the
number of active session bean instances. This value is the limit that
the cache will hold. You can use
the Tivoli Performance Viewer to view bean performance information.

an application in a web browser, the request is passed to the web
server, then along the transport to the web container.
HTTP transport settings Use this page to view and configure an HTTP transport.
The name of the page might be that of an SSL setting such as DefaultSSLSettings.

Log and trace settings Use this page to view and configure logging and trace settings
for the server.
Log level settings Use this topic to configure and manage log level settings.
Message listener service The
message listener service is an extension to the JMS
functions of the JMS provider. It provides a listener manager that

an application server uses. A thread pool enables components of the
server to reuse threads, which eliminates the need to create new
threads at run time. Creating new threads expends time and resources.
Thread pool settings Use this page to configure a thread pool that an application
server uses. A thread pool enables components of the server to reuse
threads, which eliminates the need to create new threads at run time.
Creating new threads expends time and resources.
