Configuring FileType filters
It is possible to configure the IBM® HTTP Server to increase performance of the HCL Docs editors. This might have been done when the IBM® HTTP Server was configured with HCL Connections, but if not, complete the following steps.
Procedure
Configure FileType filters on the IBM® HTTP Server:
- Log in to the Integrated Solutions Console.
- Navigate to .
- Click one of the web servers used by IBM® Connections, such as IHS_SERVERNAME_1, for example, DocsLab01-IHS.
- Under Additional Properties, click Configuration file.
- Add the following lines to the end of the file:
#Adding FileType Compression configuration LoadModule deflate_module modules/mod_deflate.so LoadModule headers_module modules/mod_headers.so #Only the specified MIME types will be compressed. AddOutputFilterByType DEFLATE application/atom+xml AddOutputFilterByType DEFLATE application/atomcat+xml AddOutputFilterByType DEFLATE application/javascript AddOutputFilterByType DEFLATE application/json AddOutputFilterByType DEFLATE application/octet-stream AddOutputFilterByType DEFLATE application/x-javascript AddOutputFilterByType DEFLATE application/xhtml+xml AddOutputFilterByType DEFLATE application/xml AddOutputFilterByType DEFLATE text/css AddOutputFilterByType DEFLATE text/html AddOutputFilterByType DEFLATE text/javascript AddOutputFilterByType DEFLATE text/plain AddOutputFilterByType DEFLATE text/xml AddOutputFilterByType DEFLATE text/xsl # Ensures that images and executable binaries are not compressed SetEnvIfNoCase Request_URI \\.(?:gif|jpeg|png|exe)$ no-gzip dont-vary # Ensure that proxies Do not deliver the wrong content Header append Vary User-Agent env=!dont-vary
- Click OK twice, and then click Save.
- Repeat for the remaining IBM® HTTP servers.
- Perform a full resynchronization on all of the nodes.
Note: You can verify in the httpd.conf that the correct path to the plugin-cfg.xml is entered for the WebSpherePluginConfig entry.
