Chapter 6 Java Event List Configuration

Configuration Procedure

Info Server Connection Properties

The properties file provides three methods of connecting to an Info Server. These are:

1.Connection to a list of Info Servers. JELD tries each Info Server in the list until a connection is made. This is the preferred method.

2.Single connection to an Info Server. This method is provided for backward compatibility with previous versions.

3.Connection to a list of URLs. Each URL specifies fully an Info Server connection. JELD tries each URL in the list until it connects to an Info Server. This option is only for use by experienced integrators. It should not be used in normal implementations.

Connection to List of Info Servers

The preferred method for the JELD to connect to an Info Server is for it to try to connect to each Info Server in a list until it makes a connection. This means that you can specify a fallback Info Server, or have the JELD retry the same one several times.

Each Info Server is specified in the properties file by a set of properties. Each property includes a number which identifies the position of the Info Server in the list. The property names for the first Info Server are:

jeld.objectserver.1.host:

jeld.objectserver.1.port:

jeld.objectserver.1.user:

jeld.objectserver.1.password:

The second Info Server has 2 instead of 1, and so on for subsequent Info Servers.

You can override the entries in the properties file from the command line. For more information, see the “JELD Command Line Utility” section on page B-2

Host Name

This entry contains the host name where the Cisco Info Server is located. For example, specify:

jeld.objectserver.host: <omnihost>

Where <omnihost> is the name of the host.

You can override this entry with the jeld command line option -host.

Port

This entry contains the port setting for the Cisco Info Server. For example, specify:

jeld.objectserver.port: 4100

You can override this entry with the jeld command line option -port.

User Name

This entry contains a user name (the suggested user name is jeld) for the Cisco Info Server. For example, specify:

jeld.objectserver.user: jeld
