The internal search function is temporarily non-functional. The current search engine is no longer viable and we are researching alternatives.
As a stop gap measure, we are using Google's custom search engine service.

Eric,
We have done both push and pull for a lot of different scenarios. Based
on your description, you want to do a dashboard of iSeries data. It's
not clear to me that a push is needed?
We handle this same requirement as follows:
1. A user brings up a browser screen, selects any runtime criteria if
needed, and runs the query.
2. The results come back and are graphed in the users browser screen.
3. Optionally, we use "auto-refresh" which tells the dashboard to
refresh itself from the iSeries data every x seconds which is
configurable.
4. The user than has constantly updated dashboard info and then can
select a different dashboard if they want which can have it's own auto
refresh settings.
With push technology, it is much more complex and error prone. You can
have a server send updated info over a request periodically but what if
the user selects a different menu item or navigates to a different page.
Those are some of the challenges we faced.
Thanks, Paul Holm
