Adding a Processing Unit

A processing unit deploys as a TIBCO Cloud Events engine. One engine runs in one JVM.

Each processing unit contains one or more agents of different types. The main types are inference agents which performs the inferencing work, and cache agents, which manage the objects. For details on the fields present on the Processing Units tab, see CDD Processing Units Tab Settings Reference.

Procedure

  1. In the CDD editor, click the Processing Units tab do the following:
    • Select the default processing unit and configure it. You can rename it as needed.
    • Click Add to add more processing units as needed.
  2. In the Name field, enter the name for the processing unit as needed.

    For deployment, TIBCO Administrator by default looks for a processing unit called default and a CDD file called default.

  3. In the Log Configuration field, browse to and select one log configuration.
    See Log Configurations for more details on log configurations.
  4. Check the Hot Deploy check box if you want to enable hot deployment.
    See TIBCO BusinessEvents Administration for details about hot deployment.
  5. If you use the TIBCO BusinessEvents Data Modeling add-on, check the Enable DB Concepts check box to enable database concept functionality on this processing unit as desired.
  6. In the Agents section, click Add and select an agent class.
  7. If needed, assign to each agent a key and a priority.
  8. In the Properties section, add any additional configuration properties as required.
    For example see the "Localhost and Localport Properties" section in CDD Cluster Tab Coherence Properties Reference for one use case.
  9. Save the resource.
