Note: CACI recommends setting the Maximum and Minimum memory settings to the same
value.
Note: Due to a limitation with a third-party caching component used by webMethods, it may be
desirable to configure webMethods to use less than the maximum JVM setting for
Windows (~1500 MB). In some cases, OutOfMemory and caching exceptions can be
avoided by reducing the memory assigned to the JVM, thereby allowing more of the
machine’s memory to be available for non-JVM processes.

This section explains how to configure a My webMethods Server (MWS) instance. Each
physical machine should be configured with a single MWS instance. MWS can be configured to
use an external Relational Database Management System (RDBMS) or an internal RDBMS. If
you answered “Yes” to Section 3.2 Run the CACI webMethods Installer for SR17 Step 13, follow
the steps in Section 4.5.1 Create MWS Instance with External RDBMS. If you answered “No”,
follow the steps in Section 4.5.2 Create MWS Instance with Internal RDBMS.
Note: Before the MWS database can be created, ensure that the MWS Sybase Instance has been
setup based on the Sybase ASE 16.0 SP01 PL02 Configuration Guide for My webMethods
Server 9.8 guide.
Note: Skip this section if the new MWS database is the first MWS database on the Sybase
instance.
The default MWS Sybase instance parameter "number of user connections" is set for a single
MWS database. For each additional MWS database on the Sybase instance, the parameter must
be increased by 15 to accommodate additional database connections.
If the new MWS database is not the first MWS database on the Sybase instance, then the
parameter must be updated.
To update the "number of user connections" parameter:
1. Log into the MWS Sybase instance (refer to My webMethods Server Sybase Alias Name
in Table 2: MWS Setup Parameters) as “sa” (refer to Server Sybase Super User ID and
Password in Table 2: MWS Setup Parameters) using Interactive SQL.
2. Select the master database from the drop-down list box on the top right.
3. Execute the following commands to retrieve current value:
exec sp_configure 'number of user connections'
go
4. Execute commands by selecting SQL Execute from the menu or pressing <F5>.
5. Identify the data under the Run Value column and add 15 to this value.
6. Clear the SQL Statements pane.
7. Execute the following command to increase the number of user connections, where
<NEWVAL> is the new value calculated in Step 5:
exec sp_configure 'number of user connections', <NEWVAL>
go
8. Execute commands by selecting SQL Execute from the menu or pressing <F5>.
9. Close Interactive SQL.
Note: Evaluate and address any errors, as needed. Contact the SPS Help Desk with any
questions.
2. Attempt to log into the My webMethods Server. Refer to Appendix I: Log into My
