Use the Deployment Topology page
to manage the topology configuration for your IBM-supplied patterns.
Managing the configuration can involve adding and replacing nodes,
as well as changing the number of cluster members.
Before you begin
Navigate to the administrative console of a deployment
manager .
About this task
Use this page to add nodes to your deployment environment,
if needed. You can also change the number of cluster members participating
in a particular function for each node.
By adding
nodes you can increase the overall work capacity of the system.
Use the procedure described in this task to modify
the deployment topology in the following ways:
- Before the deployment environment is generated,
so that only the deployment environment definition is updated
- After the deployment environment has been generated, as a means
to create or delete cluster members
If the deployment environment
has already been generated, then the changes you make to the topology
configuration are used to update the number of cluster members for
the corresponding deployment environment clusters. For example, if
you use the Deployment Topology panel to add a node, then the deployment
environment definition is updated by that one node and all clusters
that are managed by the deployment environment are adjusted by one
more cluster member on that node (or the number of cluster members
as defined by this panel). This adjustment is made to the topology
configuration when you click OK or Apply on
the Deployment Topology panel.
Procedure
- Select an objective and perform the associated actions.
| Objective |
Actions |
|---|
| Add node |
Select a node from the pull-down list and click Add. |
| Change the number of cluster members involved in each function |
Type the number in the entry field underneath the columns
labeled:- Application Deployment Target
- Messaging Infrastructure
- Supporting Infrastructure
- Web Applications
Remember: You must have at least one cluster member
assigned for each function.
|
| Reset number of clusters assigned to each function |
If you modified the number of clusters assigned to each cluster
type, and you want to reset the parameters to the original value,
click Reset |
| Remove a node from the deployment topology |
For the node that you want to remove, select the check box
in the Select column of the table and click Remove |
- Click Apply to keep the updates
and remain on the Deployment Topology page. Click OK to
keep the updates and return to the previous page.
What to do next
Either save the changes or discard them.
