Manager settings

The manager supports a number of global settings that you can modify through the Settings tab in the administration user interface.

Controls

Use the Controls panel to restart the manager or to clear the processing queues:

Restart Manager: Forces the manager process to restart and adopt your changes to settings. Restarting the manager pauses all processing in all clusters, and resets the status of any running input connectors.
Clear Queue: Clears the queues associated with each cluster. All pending documents are removed.

License

The License panel shows the current license status of the i2 TextChart Server system, which requires a valid license file to operate. If the license is missing, expired, or not valid, then no worker nodes can connect to the manager and no documents will be accepted for processing.

To install a new license file that you received from i2 Group, click Upload and select it. The License panel is updated to reflect the new license status.

Default assets

The Default Assets panel shows the status of the default LxBase and GxBase assets.

When you create a cluster in the manager, it's configured to use the default LxBase and the default GxBase. To use a different asset from the default, you can change the cluster configuration settings on the Clusters page.

Use the Default Assets panel to upload a new LxBase or GxBase for use by all clusters for which a custom asset is not configured. Be aware that uploading new assets here causes all clusters to be updated immediately. All worker nodes that belong to these clusters will pause to download and reinitialize with the new assets.

To upload a new asset, click the appropriate lock icon, and then click Upload. The file that you select in the resulting dialog is uploaded and verified, and the asset information is updated to match it.

Settings

The Manager Settings panel allows you to edit the global parameters for the i2 TextChart Server manager. In the following table, the settings marked with an asterisk (*) require that the manager is restarted for changes to take effect.
