When using both ATG Knowledge and ATG Self Service, you need to configure locked caching in both of your clusters so that all servers stay up-to-date with user profile and ticketing information. Normally you would share lock managers only within a single cluster, but in this case locking must occur across all clusters. Refer to the ATG Service Installation and Configuration Guide for a detailed description of configuring Lock Caching.
Upgrading the Configuration
If you already have a ServerLockManager instance running for the ATG Knowledge cluster, perform the following steps:
Configure the ATG Knowledge, or agent-facing server’s
ClientLockManagerto use the existingServerLockManagerinstance.Remove the
preInitial.propertiesfor ATG Knowledge.Perform the above steps for ATG the Self Service server, or the customer-facing server , if it has been configured similarly. Start an instance for the
ServerLockManager_sharedon the customer-facing cluster.Override the default
ClientLockManagerandClientLockManager_productionon both of the server’slocalconfigto point to the correctlockManagerAddressand port. Optionally, remove anypreInitial.propertiesfiles in the ZIP files and edit theClientLockManager.propertiesfiles to setup your lock managers.For additional information on configuration of lock managers, refer to Locked Caching in the ATG Repository Guide.
