prePropagation of Custom Adapters in an Active Cluster

When you create an adapter in Studio, the adapter definition immediately propagates across the cluster. In particular, the adapter directory ('<TDV_install_dir>/conf/adapters/<custom or system>/<adapter_name>) is created on all nodes. However, any files that are then added to the adapter directory are NOT propagated automatically.

You can propagate an adapter in a cluster by:

•

Creating the adapter on a development system

•

Populating the adapter directory with all needed files

•

Creating a data source using the adapter

•

Exporting the data source (as a CAR file)

By importing the CAR file with the data source into a cluster node, the adapter and all the files in the adapter directory are propagated across the cluster.
