CDD Configuration Procedures : Task Summary

Task Summary
Tasks are divided between the bottom tabs as explained in this section. The Source tab enables you to view the XML file generated by the editor. It is strongly recommended that you do not manually edit this file. In addition entity metadata settings play a role and are documented in this chapter.
Cluster Tab
At the Cluster tab, you select an object management (OM) type and configure as needed:
For Cache OM, see Configuring a Cache OM Cluster — Cluster Tab. This OM is generally used for production deployments. A backing store is also used in most cases.
Collections Tab
At the Collections tab, you can, as desired, group rules, rule functions, and destinations into collections so that they can be easily assigned to agent classes (and processing units in the case of log configurations).
Remember to put rule functions for use at start up into different groups from those used at shut down so you can select them appropriately at the agent classes tab.
Destinations require additional configuration, which can be done in this tab. (Destinations that are added to agent classes individually can be configured at the Agent Classes tab.)
You also set up log configurations as needed at this tab.
See Configuring the Collections Tab (All OM Types).
Agent Classes Tab
At the Agent Classes tab, you define properties for the type of agent or agents you plan to deploy. Berkeley DB OM and In Memory OM use only inference agent classes. For cache OM, you configure agent classes for different types of agents: cache agents, inference agents, query agents (if TIBCO BusinessEvents Event Stream Processing add-on is used), and dashboard agents (if TIBCO BusinessEvents Views is used). See Configuring the Agent Classes Tab (All OM Types).
The "Monitoring & Management" agent type is used only for the MM server.
Processing Units Tab
In the Processing Units tab, you define which agents to include in the processing unit, and which logging configuration to use. Depending on the OM, you also configure some additional settings. See Configuring the Processing Units Tab (All OM Types).
Entity Metadata Settings
Certain entity metadata settings set backing store and other runtime behavior. For this reason they are included in this chapter. See Metadata Properties for Entities (Events and Concepts).
