Configuring Subscribers for a Feed Handler

Configure subscribers to receive messages from the custom feed handler.

Prerequisites
Configure publishers first.

The easiest way to configure the production environment is from its OpsConsole. See Operations Console Users Guide > System Configuration >Configuring Components > Configuring a Subscriber.

To configure subscribers manually, see Installation and Configuration Guide > Configuration Files and related topics for each type of subscriber.

  1. Configure any new RAPCache and RAPStore subscribers, either:
    Method Action
    From OpsConsole Edit the RAPCache and RAPStore subscribers
    Edit configuration files In $RAP/RAPCacheSubscriber/config, edit rapcache.xml and opensubscriber.xml

    In $RAP/RAPStoreSubscriber/config, edit rapstore.xml and opensubscriber.xml

  2. Add any new data stream channels to the subscriber, either:
    Method Action
    From OpsConsole Add data stream channels for the RAPCache and RAPStore subscribers
    Edit configuration files In both $RAP/RAPCacheSubscriber/config and $RAP/RAPStoreSubscriber/config, edit elements in <DataStreamChannelList> in opensubscriber.xml.
  3. Register the publisher for each subscriber.
    Method Action
    From OpsConsole Register Publisher for the RAPCache and RAPStore subscribers.
    Edit configuration files In both $RAP/RAPCacheSubscriber/config and $RAP/RAPStoreSubscriber/config, edit elements in <PublisherList> in opensubscriber.xml.
  4. (Optional) Configure message filtering by editing messagefilter.xml in both $RAP/RAPCacheSubscriber/config, and $RAP/RAPStoreSubscriber/config.

    Message filtering values must be identical for both the RAPCache and RAPStore.

    For more information, see Message Filtering in Installation and Configuration Guide.
