Configure the Process Server Properties

Configure all the Process Server instances to enable search. Use the Process Server tool in the Hub Console and the

cmxcleanse.properties

file to configure the Process Server properties for search.

In the Hub Console of a node, start the Process Server tool.

Click

Write Lock

Acquire Lock

In the right pane of the Process Server tool, click the

Add Process Server

button.

The

Add/Edit Process Server

dialog box appears.

Set the following properties of a Process Server for search:

Property	Description
Server	IP address or the fully qualified host name of the application server on which you want to deploy the Process Server. The name is case sensitive. Do not use localhost as the host name.
Port	Port of the application server on which you want to deploy the Process Server. If you want to use the HTTPS protocol to communicate with the Process Server, specify the HTTPS port of the application server.
Enable Search Processing	For a search configuration based on Elasticsearch, this property indicates whether the Process Server is enabled to run an Initially Index Smart Search Data job. This batch job creates indexes for all the values of the searchable fields in a business entity. Select the check box to enable the option for your search configuration, or clear the check box to disable the option.
Enable Secured Connection (HTTPS)	Indicates whether to use the HTTPS protocol to communicate with the Process Server. Select the check box to use the HTTPS protocol, or clear the check box to use the HTTP protocol. If you select to use the HTTPS protocol, you must specify the HTTPS port of the application server.

Use a text editor to open the

cmxcleanse.properties

file in the following location:

<MDM Hub Installation Directory>\hub\cleanse\resources

Configure the following properties for search:

cmx.ss.enabled: Indicates whether to use the Process Server to perform smart search. Default is false. Set to true if you want to use the Process Server to perform smart search.
cmx.ss.enabled: Indicates whether to enable search. In a new installation, the default is
true
. When upgrading, if this property is set, the value remains set to the pre-upgrade value. If this property is not set, the default is
false
.; JBoss 6.4.0 only. When you enable search in an environment that uses JBoss 6.4.0, you must set
cmx.server.match.file_load
to
false
. This setting forces the Process Server to use the JDBC uploader instead of native database utilities for matches.
ex.max.conn.per.host: Sets the maximum number of Elasticsearch nodes that you want to connect to the host. Set to the number of Elasticsearch cluster nodes on the host.
ex.max.threads: Sets the maximum number of threads that you want the Apache asynchronous non-blocking receiver to use for each node in the Elasticsearch cluster. Default is
1
.
Change the value only when suggested by Informatica Global Customer Support.
search.provisioning.numreplicas: Optional. Number of copies of the search engine (Solr or Elasticsearch) documents that you want to create on different nodes. Use the replication factor to create multiple copies of the documents in the shards of different nodes. You require multiple copies of the documents to achieve high availability if one or more nodes shut down unexpectedly. For example, if the replication factor is 2, you get two copies of the documents in two nodes. For Solr, the default is 1. For Elasticsearch, the default is 0.
MAX_INITIAL_RESULT_SIZE_TO_CONSIDER: Optional. Manually add the property. Total number of search results to display in the
Data Director
application. The recommended maximum value is 250. Default is 130. Any value higher than 130 affects the performance of the
Data Director
application.
ssl.keyStore: Required if you use the HTTPS port of the application server to configure the Process Server. Manually add the property. Absolute path and file name of the keystore file.
ssl.keyStore.password: Required if you use the HTTPS port of the application server to configure the Process Server. Manually add the property. Plain text password for the keystore file.
ssl.trustStore: Required if you use the HTTPS port of the application server to configure the Process Server. Manually add the property. Absolute path and file name of the truststore file.
ssl.trustStore.password: Required if you use the HTTPS port of the application server to configure the Process Server. Manually add the property. Plain text password for the truststore file.
cmx.websphere.security.ssl.config.url: Required if you use the HTTPS port of the application server to configure the Process Server. For WebSphere only. Manually add the property. Absolute path of the
ssl.client.props
file with the file name.
