In the Engine preferences window, you can define the IBM® Rational® Publishing Engine engine
as remote or local.
Procedure
- Click .
- For Remote generation, select one
of the following options:
- Yes: Generate documents on a server
instead of on your computer.
- No: Generate documents locally on your
computer.
- If you selected Yes, you must
set the Remote Services preferences also.
No is the default selection, so that
documents generate locally by default.
- To log detailed system processes for troubleshooting purposes,
for the RPE debug mode field, select one of
the following options:
- Yes: The core log files include messages
that describe how each element is processed during document generation.
- No: The core log files do not include
messages that describe how each element is processed during document
generation.
No is the default selection.
- Set the Debug step delay in milliseconds. For example, you can increase the size of the delay to slow
down the speed of the debugger's progress and examine your debugging
session more carefully.
- In the Query results limit field,
enter the maximum number of query results from the data source to
include in the preview. The default value is 10 query results,
so the first 10 values from your data display in the output so you
can quickly test your template often as you design it.
- Click OK to save the changes.
What to do next

is enabled, you can switch between local and remote document generations
