Table 1. Fields on the Backend Details Tab

Table 2. Fields on the Initial Settings Tab

Field

Description

Hub Publisher

When selected, marks this as a Hub publisher. If this option is not selected the application connector is configured as a spoke publisher.

Use different database for application

When this option is selected the application content is not placed in the same database as the MDM content. Hence, you must provide the database details for the application content in the Application tab.

Network Configuration

Machine name and Port number together are used to form a syncup ring between all the service containers within this service group for exchanging cache information, load balancing, and failover messages. To provide or modify the Machine name and Port number manually, you can select the Manual check box and do one or both of the following as per your requirement:

  • Modify the Machine Name or IP Address value with the required machine name or IP address.
  • Provide an unused free port number in the Port Number field.
    Note: By default, the Manual option is not selected and the framework automatically assigns the machine name and an unused free port number.
    You must restart the service container to apply the change.


On the Repository tab, you must provide the database details where you want the MDM content to be placed. Similarly, in the Application tab you must provide the database details where you want the application content to be placed.
