Hello,

The management portal defines the basic structure of render servers, but you'll need to make sure that two additional details are set (and these will need to be done manually).

%SYS("zenreport","renderserverport") is set to your render server port in order for it to pass report generation.

%SYS("zenreport","transformerpath") is set to your renderer

For example, I setup render server like this:

Name = FOP-HotJVM

Port = 54321

Ping port = 12345

Renderer = FOP

Render configuration file = <cache install>\fop\conf\fop.xconf

Then I would need to set the following:

%SYS("zenreport","renderserverport")=54321

%SYS("zenreport","transformerpath")=<cache install>\fop\fop

These 2 settings will need to be done while the renderer is not running. So stop the render server, set these values, and then restart the render server. This should now allow your reports to be going through the render server instead of directly.

The default memory size for FOP rendering is 512 - so if you think you need a larger amount you'll need to edit the MEMSIZE associated to it. Using render servers that would be under the <cacheinstall>\ lib\renderserver area - specifically the runwithfop  or if using the on demand fop rendering then that would be <cacheinstall>\fop

One thing to note if you are using IRIS then you would be using FOP 2.0 which has had some changes to table outputs so you may need to check on your code in order to produce consistent results.

Thanks
