Configuring Discovery Properties

Set properties in the <discoveries> or <agents> definition of the service-servlet-properties.xml file so that Sybase products can be discovered and listed in Sybase Control Center.

1. Open a text editor and load <UAF-InstallDir>\services\EmbeddedWebContainer\container\Jetty-6.1.6\work\Jetty_0_0_0_0_8282_sysadminwebtool.war__sysadminwebtool__abcevf\webapp\WEB-INF\service-servlet-properties.xml.
2. Choose and configure UDP or JINI as your discovery method in the <discoveries> definition. You can also configure both methods if you choose. UDP discovery is normally chosen in a production environment; it is faster than JINI. Therefore, JINI is disabled by default.
   1. To enable and configure UDP discovery, include the UDP <discovery> format in the <discoveries> definition. There is only one format for this method:

      <discovery>
      		<protocol> udp</protocol>
      	</discovery>
      

   2. To enable and configure JINI discovery, include any of these <discovery> formats in the <discoveries> definition.

      Format	Syntax required
      JINI broadcast	<discovery> <protocol>jini</protocol> </discovery>
      JINI server with the default port of 4160	<discovery> <protocol>jini</protocol> <host>MyHost</host> </discovery>
      JINI server with a different port	<discovery> <protocol>jini</protocol> <host>MyHost</host> <port>MyPort</port> </discovery>

      For example, a definition that contains both UDP and JINI broadcast would be defined as follows:

      <discoveries>
       <discovery>
      		 <protocol>udp</protocol>
       </discovery>
       <discovery>
      		 <protocol>jini</protocol>
       </discovery>
      </discoveries>

      Note: Do not repeat definitions. Each definition must be unique.
3. If you have a server or agent that cannot be discovered by any of the discovery methods you define, you must manually add them to the <agents> definition. Agents you define take <host>, <port>, and <protocol> properties. For example, to configure RMI, your agent format may look like this:

   <agents>
    <agent>
      <host>localhost</host>
      <port>9999</port>
      <protocol>RMI</protocol>
    </agent>
   <agents>

4. Save the changes.
