Description

According to HCL product documentation:
Specifies whether or not server performance events are displayed on the console.
1 - Displays server performance events on console
With Server_Show_Performance=1, server-side performance events (e.g. periodic notes from the server task about utilization and response times) are output directly to the console. This is primarily a diagnostic and tuning tool — for example, to read live during a fault situation whether and when the server logs performance hints.
For normal operation the parameter is typically not set; HCL does not name a default value for activation in the docs — without an entry, the console remains free of these events.

Example configuration

Server_Show_Performance=1
With Server_Show_Performance=1, server performance events appear on the console as soon as the server detects corresponding events.

Notes & pitfalls

  • Pure display control — the underlying performance statistics are independently available via show stat and log.nsf.
  • Use sparingly in production: on heavily loaded servers, the console can otherwise be flooded with performance hints.
  • According to HCL there is no direct GUI equivalent; the value can be maintained via the NOTES.INI Settings tab of a Configuration document.
