You must configure a computer to be the application controller for an application. Only one computer can be configured as the controller for an application. The computer that is the application controller runs the Data Relationship Management Process Manager program, which controls all Data Relationship Management processes on all computers configured in the Data Relationship Management application.
The application controller computer also has the Data Relationship Management configuration file (drm-config.xml). No matter how many computers are configured for a Data Relationship Management application, only one configuration file will exist. All configuration for an application must be done on the application controller computer.
Caution! | It is recommended that you first set up all secondary servers (servers that are not the application controller and where the Application Server and Web Server components are installed), then configure the application controller server. The “Oracle DRM Server Processes” service on all secondary servers MUST be started and running BEFORE starting the “Oracle DRM Server Processes” service on the application controller server. |
When you select the computer as the application controller, a new application with standard default parameters is created. The default application name is generated from the computer name.
