About the Help Domain and the Custom Help Domain

As a Service Provider, you might create a help website to align with a customer's branded instance of the platform. In this case, the URL of this help website would be used as the default Help Domain. When a user clicks the Help link in the platform, this default Help Domain opens in a new browser window.

If unchecked, complete the following information to configure Marketing Campaign Email: Hostname For Relay Server IP address or the Domain name of the email relay server Port The TCP port of the email relay server; The default value is 25 and can be changed User Name The username associated with the mailbox used to connect to the email relay server Password The password associated with the mailbox used to connect to the email relay server From Email Address This address is displayed on the email as from email address To process bounced emails for Marketing Campaign, complete the following information: Hostname Hostname used for processing the bounced emails generated by the marketing campaign Port The TCP port of the email relay server; The default value is 25 and can be changed Mailbox Address The mailbox used for processing the bounced emails from the Email Marketing campaigns Password The password for the mailbox used to track bounced emails

Considerations

• If the email relay server details are specified:

• Any Marketing campaign that is launched is routed through the configured server, including Test email messages
• Bounce email configuration is required if the email relay server details are specified

• It is not possible to specify just the email relay server details without specifying the bounce mailbox and password

• The bounce mailbox address must be validated to ensure that the value does not match the other Mailbox addresses that are present in Service Provider Settings

• If the email relay server details are not specified:

• Campaigns can be created, however it is not possible to send a test message or launch the campaign
• Any Callback URL in the Marketing campaign emails point back to the Service Domain that has been specified in the Service Provider Settings

Develop Configuration

Java code running in a tenancy is subject to strict limits--or governors:

• Some settings put limits on the number of resources that tenants can use, to prevent infinite loops and other kinds of runaway programs. The limits apply to each tenant execution interval--from the time that the platform application instance gives control to tenant code, until the time that control returns to the platform. Up to that limit, an application can use as many resources as it wants. But once a constraint is exceeded, the executing code aborts with an exception.

• Other settings restrict the kinds of Java classes that can be used, to prevent unwarranted access to the server and/or security violations.

The Service Provider Settings can be used to tighten those restrictions, ameliorate them, or lift them entirely.

Considerations

• Settings are global. They apply to all tenants in the platform instance.
• Settings apply to scheduled (background) jobs, as well as foreground applications.
• The minimum for all numeric settings is "1".
• Changes to these settings take effect only when the platform application instance is restarted.

Here are the default settings:

Parameter	Description	Default Value
Apply Governors in Java Code?	Whether or not governors are applied to this platform instance. A development instance may want to turn them off, in some cases. Any multi-tenant production instance will want them on, to ensure that a runaway program in one tenant does not interfere with other tenants. Note: Currently, the code governance is available for Linux installations only.	Yes
Max Number of Statements allowed	The maximum number of Java code statements that can be run during an execution interval.	10000
Maximum String Length allowed	The total size of all strings allocated in the Java heap space during an execution interval.	30000
Maximum CPU Time allowed (milliseconds)	The maximum number of CPU milliseconds that can be consumed during an execution interval.	60000
Java classes not allowed in code	There are certain Java classes which are disallowed in tenant classes, to prevent access to the server and any compromise of server security. (They are, however, allowed in global classes developed by the ISV for use by all tenants.) In order to protect the security of the server, enter a comma-separated list of fully qualified Java Class Names for this option. At compile time, application will check if any of these classes are referenced in the user code and throw an exception if they are. Note that this will take effect only after the server is restarted.	<syntaxhighlight lang="java" enclose="div"> java.lang.System, java.lang.Runtime, java.lang.Class, java.lang.ClassLoader, java.lang.Thread, java.lang.ThreadGroup, java.lang.ThreadLocal, java.lang.Runnable, java.lang.Compiler, java.lang.RuntimePermission, java.lang.reflect.AccessibleObject, java.lang.reflect.Array, java.lang.reflect.Constructor, java.lang.reflect.Field, java.lang.reflect.Method, java.lang.reflect.Modifier, java.lang.reflect.Proxy, java.lang.reflect.ReflectPermission, java.io.FileReader, java.io.FileWriter, java.io.FileInputStream, java.io.FileOutputStream, java.net.DatagramSocket, java.net.DatagramSocketImpl, java.net.HttpURLConnection, java.net.Inet4Address, java.net.Inet6Address, java.net.InetAddress, java.net.InetSocketAddress, java.net.JarURLConnection, java.net.MulticastSocket, java.net.ServerSocket, java.net.Socket, java.net.URL, java.net.URI, java.net.URLClassLoader, java.net.URLConnection, java.net.URLStreamHandler, java.lang.Process, java.lang.ProcessBuilder </syntaxhighlight>
Libraries supported in Java Code	When compiling user-defined code, the platform allows certain libraries like jars or internal java packages: If a custom library is required, the jar can be placed in the ../tomcat/lib folder of the Apache Tomcat installation To include these library files, enter a comma-separated list of such jar files for this option Note that this will take effect only after the server is restarted.	Empty
No. of Objects in Database Views	Database Views allow the creation of custom categories that join multiple objects These database views can be used as the base category for a Report The maximum number of tables that are allowed is five (5), with a default value of three (3) The number of joins in these tables is restricted to the maximum number + 1	Default: 3, Range is 3-5
Maximum rows in a List View	Maximum number of rows that are fetched in a List View for an object is defined by this option This number is limited by the maximum int value supported by Java/MySQL i.e. 2^16 = 4G	10000
Maximum rows in a report	Maximum number of rows that are fetched in a report This number is limited by the maximum int value supported by Java/MySQL i.e. 2^16 = 4G	5000
Maximum rows in a Scheduled Report	Maximum number of rows that are fetched in a report that runs in the background queue. This number is limited by the maximum int value supported by Java/MySQL i.e. 2^16 = 4G	5000
Maximum Savepoints	Intermediate placemarks, which identify points at which the data fields contain intact, legitimate values	5
Maximum Recursions in Java API	Allow a function to call itself the specified number of times	10

Tenant Configuration

This section is used by:

• ISVs who are hosting clients on a shared instance of the platform.
• ISV users who are setting up an instance of the Installable Version in order to Develop on Separate Platforms.

Allow Unauthenticated Tenant Creation

Allows any prospective customer to create a new tenancy (a trial account).

• Unchecked by default
• If checked, trial accounts can be created by unauthenticated users who have a computer and network connection that meets the Minimum Client Requirements

Enable Tenant Subdomains

This setting lets customers specify a URL subdomain when registering, giving them a unique URL they can use to access their platform applications.

Instance Configuration

This section is used by ISVs who are using the Installable Version of the platform to set up multiple collaborating instances.

Instance Type

Choose one of: Development, Testing, Production

• When a single instance of the platform will be used to host client tenants and/or development tenancies for cloud development, use the default instance type (production).

• When multiple instances of the platform will be used for testing, development, and production, choose the type that corresponds to the work that will be done on this instance of the platform.

Learn more: Collaborative Development Configurations

Considerations:

• For Development and Testing instances, the instance type is part of the generated namespace.
• If Instance Type is Development, then the Metadata Repository feature can be enabled
