There are three reasons to register a pipeline: to use the application
monitor to monitor pipeline status and statistics, to configure routing rules
for the pipeline, or both. You can add a new pipeline registration or base
the registration on an existing registered pipeline.
Before you begin:
You must know the unique name of the pipeline and the name of the
pipeline node hosting the pipeline. The pipeline does not have to already
be installed and configured on the pipeline node before you register it. (But
it must be installed and configured before the system can monitor or route
to the pipeline.)
About this task:
Tip: If you are adding multiple pipelines that all run on the
same pipeline node, you might choose to register the first pipeline, and then
clone the other pipelines from the first one you added.
Procedure:
- Click the Setup button.
- Click the General button.
- Click the Pipelines tab.
- Complete one of the following steps:
- To register a new pipeline, click the New button.
- To register a new pipeline based on an existing pipeline, click the Clone button.
- On the General tab, specify a unique pipeline
name, description, pipeline node name, and whether to monitor the pipeline
status and statistics.
Note: - The pipeline name you enter is the same name that you must use when starting
this pipeline. This name is case sensitive, so when you start the pipeline,
you must enter the exact match of this registered pipeline name. If you do
not enter an exact match (or case match), neither the routing rules configured
for this pipeline nor the application monitoring for this pipeline will work.
- If you want to monitor the status and statistics for this pipeline on
the Pipeline Status tab in the Configuration
Console, select Yes in the Monitored field.
- Click the Save button.
What to do next:
If the pipeline was successfully added, it displays in the list on
the left side of the screen. You can now set up routing rules for this pipeline
or use the system to monitor the pipeline. However, keep in mind that to successfully
route to or monitor the pipeline, it must be started using the exact same
name, including case, as registered in the Pipeline Name field.
