Routing Clients With Roles

The easiest and most common method of routing clients is to set the Manager List in a user role, and then set a user name in the driver.properties file. This routes clients directly to a set of listed Brokers.

To configure the Manager List:

1.

In the GridServer Administration Tool, go to Admin > User Admin > Role Admin.

2.

Select a role, click the Actions list, and select View/Edit , or to create a new role, with no role selected, click the Actions list and select Create a new Security Role.

3.

Enter the list of Brokers to which you want the client to be routed.

4.

Click Save.

5.

Go to Admin > User Admin > User Admin.

6.

Select a user, click the Actions list, and select Edit User, or to create a new user, with no role selected, click the Actions list and select Create New User.

7.

Assign the role to the user.

8.

Edit the driver.properties file for the Driver, and set the DSUsername and DSPassword properties to the user name and password of the user assigned the role you created/edited.
