Metadata Repository

Each TDV server has its own metadata repository, which can reside on the server or in a database instance. All metadata is replicated except for information specific to each server.

Clustered artifacts include:

•

Global configuration settings

•

Studio resources, including: containers, data sources, definition sets (SQL and XML), published resources, Discovery models, procedures (SQL Script, Packaged Query, Xquery, XSLT), tables (relational tables, views, flat files), trees (XML files), and triggers.

•

Domain, group, and user information

•

Primary CJP JAR files

•

Custom adapter files

•

Data source statistics

•

Designer bundles

TDV metadata that is not replicated includes:

•

Local configuration settings

•

TDV instance-bound information:

—

Runtime information

—

File cache data

•

Data requiring manual intervention:

—

Data source files (for example, XML and CSV)

—

Resources referenced by primary CJP JAR files

—

Customized ldap.properties files

All non-replicating configuration parameters are marked in the Administration > Configuration window with This is not replicated in a cluster in bold in the Description area.

Customized ldap.properties files and data source capabilities files are not automatically replicated or synchronized; these must be replicated manually. See TDV Installation and Upgrade Guide for more information.
