Server startup parameters (dynamic property)
The OpenEdge startup parameters that you want to specify to start each agent.
You can update this property dynamically. Any changes will affect only new agents that start after the property value has changed; existing (running) brokers and agents are not updated.
Note: It is recommended to set the Stack size startup parameter value as -s 128 in the Server startup parameters field, when working with databases having large schemas.
PROPATH
The search path that agents use to locate ABL procedures that they execute. Specify a list of directory pathnames in the form of an OpenEdge PROPATH. Make sure that you copy all of your AppServer procedures to one or more of the directories in the PROPATH. You can enter the pathname directly.
Minimum port number (dynamic property)
The minimum TCP/IP port number from a range that each agent process can listen on. When each agent starts, it allocates a port that is not being used from the specified range up to the Maximum port number setting.
