MasterControllerConfig

The configuration class for the Manager Service. The attributes define the module name and Java class. The default values should not be changed. 

logic-class

A custom plug-in that defines custom processing logic for the execute match functions that can be called from client applications. This element is optional. 

logic-class-gui

A custom plug-in that defines custom processing logic for the execute match function that is called from the Master Index Data Manager (MIDM). This element is optional. 

update-mode

An indicator of whether to recalculate potential duplicates when a record is updated. Specify Pessimistic to recalculate potential duplicates; specify Optimistic to prevent potential duplicate recalculation on updates.

merged-record-update

An indicator of whether records with a status of Merged can be updated. Specify Enabled to allow updates of merged records; specify Disabled to ensure that records with a Merged status are not updated.

execute-match

Specifies the blocking query to use for match processing. 

query-builder

The name of the blocking query to use for match processing. The name must match a query defined in query.xml. 

option

Optional parameters for the blocking query. Currently parameters are not used by any predefined blocking queries. 

option/key

A parameter for the blocking query. 

option/value

The value of the key specified by the corresponding key attribute.

transaction

The transaction mode for the master index application. Specify one of the following values: 

• LOCAL – Transactions are not distributed.

• CONTAINER – Transactions are distributed across applications.

• BEAN – Transactions are distributed within the master index application.

DecisionMakerConfig

The configuration class for the Decision Maker. The attributes define the module name and Java class. The default values should not be changed. 

decision-maker-class

The Java class that contains the methods used by the Decision Maker class. The default value, com.sun.mdm.index.decision.impl.DefaultDecisionMaker, should not need to be changed, but you can implement a custom Decision Maker class. The default class accepts the parameters described below.

parameters

A list of parameters for the Decision Maker class. 

parameter

A definition of a Decision Maker parameter. The parameters element can contain multiple parameter elements, each defining one parameter.

description

A brief description of the parameter. This element is optional. 

parameter-name

The name of the parameter. The default Decision Maker class takes the following parameters (see Decision Makerfor more information about these parameters).

• OneExactMatch - A Boolean indicator of whether an assumed match is made when there are more than one record above the match threshold.

• SameSystemMatch - A Boolean indicator of whether an assumed match can be made between two records that originate from the same external system.

• DuplicateThreshold - The lowest match weight at which two records are considered to be potential duplicates.

• MatchThreshold - The lowest match weight at which two records are assumed to be a match of one another.

parameter-type

The type of parameter. Valid values are java.lang.Long, java.lang.Short, java.lang.Byte, java.lang.String, java.lang.Integer, java.lang.Boolean, java.lang.Double, or java.lang.Float.

parameter-value

The value of the parameter. For OneExactMatch and SameSystemMatch, this must be a Boolean value. For MatchThreshold and DuplicateThreshold, this must be a Float value.

EuidGeneratorConfig

The configuration class for the EUID Generator. The attributes define the module name and Java class. The default values should not be changed. 

euid-generator-class

The Java class used by the master index application to generate new EUIDs. The default class is com.sun.mdm.index.idgen.impl.DefaultEuidGenerator, which assigns sequential EUIDs based on the three parameters described below.

parameters

A list of parameters for the EUID Generator class. 

parameter

A parameter definition. The parameters element can contain multiple parameter elements, each defining one parameter.

description

A brief description of the parameter. This element is optional. 

parameter-name

The name of the parameter. The default EUID Generator class takes the following parameters (see EUID Generator for more information about these parameters).

• IdLength - The length of the EUIDs generated by the master index application.

• CheckSum - The length of the checksum value used to validate EUIDs.

• ChunkSize - The number of EUIDs allocated to the server at one time.

parameter-type

The type of parameter. Valid values are java.lang.Long, java.lang.Short, java.lang.Byte, java.lang.String, java.lang.Integer, java.lang.Boolean, java.lang.Double, or java.lang.Float.

parameter-value

The value of the parameter. For the default parameters, the values are all integers.
