Specifying Handler Chains for an EAServer 5.x Services Package Profile

A handler chain is a series of handlers that are called as a single unit. On the Handlers Chain page of the EAServer 5.x Services Package Profile editor, you can specify handler chain details for this package profile. The changes you make during package profile definition are used for this profile only and do not change the basic service. This page has two sections:

Handler ChainsDisplays all of the handler chains included in this package. Select a handler chain in this sectionl before you add, edit, or remove a handler from the chain.
HandlersDisplays handlers included in the specified handler chain. Select a handler chain that contains this handler before you add, edit, or remove a handler.

The Add, Edit, and Remove buttons are active when you select a handler chain in the Handler Chains section or a handler is selected in the Handlers section. A Handlers dialog assists you when you click Add or Edit.
