Configuration Properties


Elastic Deployment Topology Configuration

Here are the main configuration properties you may use with the ElasticSpaceDeployment and the ElasticStatefulProcessingUnitDeployment:

Property Type Description Default Mandatory
highlyAvailable boolean Specifies if the space should duplicate each information on two different machines. true No
memoryCapacityPerContainer int , MemoryUnit Specifies the the heap size per container (operating system process) Yes
minNumberOfCpuCoresPerMachine double Overrides the minimum number of CPU cores per machine assumption. No
maxMemoryCapacity int , MemoryUnit Specifies an estimate of the maximum memory capacity for this processing unit. Yes
maxNumberOfCpuCores int Specifies an estimate for the maximum total number of cpu cores used by this processing unit. No
numberOfPartitions int Defines the number of processing unit partitions. No
numberOfBackupsPerPartition int Overrides the number of backup processing unit instances per partition. 1 No
secured boolean deploy a secured processing unit. false No
singleMachineDeployment Allows deployment of the processing unit on a single machine, by lifting the limitation for primary and backup processing unit instances from the same partition to be deployed on different machines. false No
userDetails UserDetails Advanced: Sets the security user details for authentication and authorization of the processing unit. No
scale EagerScaleConfig or ManualCapacityScaleConfig Enables the specified scale strategy, and disables all other scale strategies. No
useScriptToStartContainer Allow the GridServiceContainer to be started using a script and not a pure Java process. No

Scale Strategy Configuration

Here are the main configuration properties you may use with the EagerScaleConfig and the ManualCapacityScaleConfig:

Property Type Description Default Mandatory
memoryCapacityInMB int Specifies the total memory capacity of the processing unit. Yes
numberOfCpuCores int Specifies the total CPU cores for the processing unit. No
maxConcurrentRelocationsPerMachine int Specifies the number of processing unit instance relocations each machine can handle concurrently. By setting this value higher than 1, processing unit re balancing completes faster, by using more machine cpu and network resources 1 No

Machine Provisioning Configuration

Here are the main configuration properties you may use with the DiscoveredMachineProvisioningConfigurer that is passed to the dedicatedMachineProvisioning and sharedMachineProvisioning methods:

Property Type Description Default Mandatory
reservedMemoryCapacityPerMachine int Sets the expected amount of memory (total RAM) per machine that is reserved for processes other than grid containers (GSCs created dynamically). These include Grid Agent, Grid Service Manager, Lookup Service , Elastic Service Manager , Web UI , GS-UI and also any other daemon/process running on the machine (Non-XAP related process).
In most cases the default value will be too small as you may choose to allocate more than 1GB for the XAP grid management processes (GSA, GSM, LUS, ESM, Web-UI, GS-UI) and other processes running on the machine.
Recommended value should be total XAP grid management processes required RAM + 20% of the total machine RAM + total memory required for all non-XAP processes running on the machine.
1024 MB. No
reservedMemoryCapacityPerManagementMachine int This property is similar to reservedMemoryCapacityPerMachine:
It sets the expected amount of memory (total RAM) per management machine (which runs the ESM) that is reserved for processes other than grid containers (GSCs created dynamically). These include Grid Agent, Grid Service Manager, Lookup Service , Elastic Service Manager , Web UI , GS-UI and also any other daemon/process running on the machine (Non-XAP related process).
In most cases the default value will be too small as you may choose to allocate more than 1GB for the XAP grid management processes (GSA, GSM, LUS, ESM, Web-UI, GS-UI) and other processes running on the machine.
Recommended value should be total XAP grid management processes required RAM + 20% of the total machine RAM + total memory required for all non-XAP processes running on the machine.
1024 MB. No
