Server Command-Line Options for FTL Stores

When starting the EMS server with FTL stores, the server must be pointed at the FTL server cluster where message data and configuration information will be stored and retrieved from. This is done via the following server command line options.

Option Description
-ftl_url url The FTL server URL list for the FTL server cluster to connect to.
-ftl_app_name name The name of the application defined in FTL that will be used by this server’s FTL stores.

This name must match the application name specified while uploading the JSON configuration to the FTL server cluster.

-config key The key specified while uploading the JSON configuration to the FTL server cluster.
-module_path path_list Path to lib directory of FTL installation.
