Installing Custom Code

This section describes how to install your custom code in Exalead CloudView to work with the JDBC connector.

Warning: This customization method is specific to the JDBC connector. The standard method to include custom components is to package them as plugins. For more information, see Packaging Custom Components as Plugins.

  1. Copy the custom file to:

    <DATADIR>/javabin

    Note: If you want to point to an external library, in common with other applications, you can also choose to configure its filepath in the appropriate ProcessInternalConfig block of the <DATADIR>/config/DeploymentInternal.xml file, as follows:

    <ProcessInternalConfig ... 
  <args>
    <StringValue value="-classpath <CLASSPATH>">
    </StringValue>
  </args>
</ProcessInternalConfig>

    The benefit of this method is that any change brought to the library is taken into account automatically. You only have to restart the impacted Exalead CloudView process.

  2. Restart the connector server process (if it already exists).
    1. In the Administration Console, go to Home.
    2. In the Processes pane, click the restart icon of the connectors-java0.
