When you run a mapping in advanced mode using an agent that's not associated with an

advanced configuration

, a default

advanced configuration

is created and associated with the agent. The agent can use the default configuration to create a default local cluster that can process the mapping.

A default

advanced configuration

is created in the following situations:

You can view the

advanced configuration

for the default cluster on the

Advanced Clusters

page in Administrator. You can edit the configuration to modify the staging location, log location,

mapping

task timeout, and runtime properties. You can also monitor the default local cluster on the

Advanced Clusters

page in Monitor.

A default

advanced configuration

is not created if the operating system on the agent machine can't host a local cluster. In this case, you need to manually create an

advanced configuration

in Administrator and associate the

advanced configuration

with the runtime environment.

When your organization is ready to run mappings to process production-scale workloads, complete the following tasks:

A larger cluster can also resolve memory and performance issues that developers encounter during testing.
