Main Settings (Remote Pagelet Web Service)

To specify the location of your remote pagelet Web service, specify time-outs, and enable or disable the portlets associated with this Web service:

Note: Under Server Information, you see the remote server associated with this Web service - the Ensemble Remote Server Object. This remote server contains the information needed to connect to Oracle WebCenter Ensemble. You cannot change the remote server as you can with other Web services.

1. Under Select Pagelet, select the pagelet you want to make available through this Web service:

1. In the Pagelet Libraries box, you see the pagelet libraries from your Oracle WebCenter Ensemble deployment. Select the library that contains the pagelet you want to make available.

2. In the Pagelets box, you see the pagelets available in the library you selected in the previous step. Select the pagelet you want to make available through this Web service.
   
   The selected library and pagelet appear to the right of the Pagelets box.

2. Under HTTP Settings, specify the time-out settings for this Web service. For each time-out setting, specify how long you want the portal to try to get the portlet content from the computer hosting the portlet. If the host computer does not return content before the time-out period ends, the portlet displays an error message.
   
   In each time-out text box, type the number of seconds or minutes you want the portal to wait; then, in the drop-down list click Second(s) or Minute(s).

• The Portlet Timeout setting applies only to non-gatewayed content. You probably want to set a relatively short time, because users might have to wait for the entire time-out period to elapse before their My Pages or community pages display.

• The Gateway Timeout setting applies only to gatewayed content (for example, linked content from Publisher or Collaboration that is not displayed on a My Page or community page). You can probably set a slightly longer time here than for the portlet timeout, because gatewayed content is often secured or of a more complicated nature and therefore users are willing to wait longer for it to display.

3. Under Status of Web Service, specify what should happen when a user tries to access portlets created from this pagelet Web service:

• To display the pagelet content, click Enabled.

• To display a message rather than the pagelet content, click Disabled with message and type a message in the box.

You can toggle the status of this Web service at any time. For example, you might want to disable a Web service if you need to do maintenance on the host computer or on the Web service itself.
