Updating the Node Role

Updating the Node Role

By default, each node has both the service and compute roles. If a node is assigned to a Data Integration Service grid that is configured to run jobs in separate remote processes, you might want to update the node role.
Enable only the service role to dedicate the node to running the Data Integration Service process. Enable only the compute role to dedicate the node to running Data Integration Service mappings.
Before you can disable the service role on a node, you must shut down all application service processes running on the node and remove the node as a primary or back-up node for any application service. You cannot disable the service role on a gateway node.
  1. In the Administrator tool, click the
    Manage
    tab >
    Services and Nodes
    view.
  2. In the Domain Navigator, select a node assigned to a Data Integration Service grid.
  3. In the Properties view, click
    Edit
    for the general properties.
    The
    Edit General Properties
    dialog box appears.
  4. Select or clear the service and compute roles to update the node role.
  5. Click
    OK
    .
  6. If you disabled the compute role, the
    Disable Compute Role
    dialog box appears. Perform the following steps:
    1. Select one of the following modes to disable the compute role:
      • Complete. Allows jobs to run to completion before disabling the role.
      • Stop. Stops all jobs and then disables the role.
      • Abort. Tries to stop all jobs before aborting them and disabling the role.
    2. Click
      OK
      .
  7. If you updated the role on a node assigned to a Data Integration Service or a Data Integration Service grid, recycle the Data Integration Service.
