CAS Config domain

Tracks CAS host configurations, where a configuration is the application of one or more template sets to a specific database server host. From configuration instances you can see which items within template sets are enabled or disabled, or exactly which files are selected and monitored (or not) by file name pattern templates. This topic describes the domain's entities and attributes.

Available to roles: all

Host Entity

Identifies a CAS host (a database server) and the current status of CAS (online/offline). A CAS Host entity is created the first time that CAS is seen on a database server host. It is updated each time that the online/offline status changes. The Host entity is available in the CAS Host History domain and the CAS Config domain.

Attribute Description
Host Id Host ID
Host Name Database server host name (might display as IP address)

An Instance Config Entity is created each time that an instance configuration is defined. This entity defines how the CAS instance connects to the database (if necessary), and identifies the template set used by the instance.
