Updating the location of a remote Transaction Collector

You may want to change the location of the Transaction Collector to which ARM data is sent. Use the ARM configuration file, armconfig.xml, to modify the location of a remote Transaction Collector.

From Transaction Tracking V7.1.0.1 onwards, armconfig.xml is included in the Transaction Tracking installation at $CANDLE_HOME/tmaitm6/arm/.

To update the location of a remote Transaction Collector:

1. Open armconfig.xml in a text editor.
2. Update ttconnectionstring with the location of the remote Transaction Collector using the format:
   • For IPv4, tcp:TU_host:TU_port
   • For IPv6, tcp:[TU_host]:TU_port

   where TU_host is the host name of the Transaction Collector, and TU_port is the port on which the Transaction Collector is listening for data. For example:

   • For IPv4, <ttconnectionstring>tcp:127.0.0.1:5455</ttconnectionstring>
   • For IPv6, <ttconnectionstring>tcp:[::1]:5455</ttconnectionstring>
3. Restart the application that loads the ARM library.
