Configuring Task Manager

The task manager feature allows you to create and run automated and scheduled tasks. However, you can use the task manager feature only after you deploy the task manager component as part of the CCx container deployment.

To enable the task manager feature for your container deployment:

1. Log in to the IBM Content Navigator administration tool.
2. Click Settings and select the General tab.
3. In the Task Manager Configuration section, complete the following tasks:
   1. Enable the task manager service.
   2. Get the Task manager service URL for the task manager service.
      1. In the OCP console, go to Networking > Services.
      2. Copy the URL for the Task Manager service from the list of services.
   3. Specify the Task manager log directory.
      By default, the log files for the task manager service are written to the same directory as the task-specific log files. The default location is /opt/ibm/wlp/usr/servers/defaultServer/logs.

      Important: If you change this setting, you must restart the IBM Content Navigator web application for the changes to take effect.
   4. Set Cluster heartbeat monitoring to false for container environments.
