Description

When a GS engine starts initially, by default it uses the ‘default’ engine configuration. A user can change this once the engine starts up from GS Admin UI but this would take few additional steps and also need a restart.

 

Resolution

  1. Create a custom engine configuration on GS Admin UI. For example, let’s say the name for this new Linux engine configuration is ‘testconfig’

  2. Run the ./configure.sh script as explained in GS Installation guide. For example: “./configure.sh –s hostname:port –P profiles_dir –l y|n”

  3. Start the engine as explained in GS Installation guide and provide the new engine configuration’s name as an additional parameter. For example: “./engine.sh –start testconfig

  4. Once the engine starts, login to GS Admin UI and you should see that your engines will be using the new engine configuration instead of the default one (under Engines>Engine Daemon page on Admin UI).

Issue/Introduction

This article explains how one can start Linux engines with custom engine configuration on initial startup instead of doing it from GridServer (GS) Admin UI
