Modifying Cursor Settings

This topic describes the procedure to modify cursor settings of a data entity in a published Cordys MDM model.

Cursor size is the number of records MDM has to fetch while performing bulk operations such as Upload during data synchronization. You can define the cursor size of a data entity while selecting Web services to read and update data at design-time of the data integration model. There may arise situations where there is a need to change the cursor size during run-time. For example, the number of individual records that are fetched are huge and the computer may run out of memory. In such cases, you may wish to modify the cursor size dynamically without republishing the data integration model. You can modify the cursor size at run-time also.
Note: The cursor size set in the run-time is not retained if the model is republished. If the model is republished then the cursor size is reverted to the design-time cursor size.

1. On CUSP > My Applications, click (MDM Data Steward Cockpit). The MDM Data Steward Cockpit window appears with a list of published MDM models.
2. You can access the run-time view of the published MDM model in any one of the following ways:
   
   • Click the published MDM model, and click (Perform Runtime Operations) from the tool bar.
   • Right click the published MDM model and select Perform Runtime Operations. The Runtime View - <MDM Model> window appears with the graphical runtime view of the selected MDM model.
     Note: If you have selected the MDM model that is deployed through Application Registry, then the graphical run-time view of the selected MDM model will not appear, the tabular view of the selected MDM model appears.
3. Click the data entity for which you want to modify the cursor settings and click (Modify Cursor Settings) from the tool bar.

   
   Attention:
   If the selected MDM model is deployed through Application Registry, perform the following steps to select a data entity:

   1. Click the data store name under the Data Stores column, in the tabular view of the selected MDM model. The corresponding data entities appear under Data Entities table.
   2. Select the check box corresponding to the data entity for which you want to modify the cursor settings and click (Modify Cursor Settings) from the tool bar.

   
   The Update Cursor Size for <Data Entity> dialog box appears with cursor size defined for the Web services to read and update data associated with the data entity.

4. Type the cursor size as required.
5. Click .
   
   The cursor size for the data entity are modified.
