Before you begin to configure your Guided Search application, make sure that your application's environment is configured properly.
You configure your application's environment by editing application configuration files. The following are the application configuration files that you will want to edit in most circumstances:
AssemblerConfig.xml- Specifies the application server cluster that allows for quick updating of all Assemblers.AuthoringDgraphCluster.xml- Specifies the Dgraphs used in the authoring environment and a script that pushes configuration from Workbench to each Dgraph in the authoring cluster.DataIngest.xml- Specifies data processing scripts, including the baseline update script, partial update script, and the components to perform data processing such as CAS or Forge and Dgidx.DgraphDefaults.xml- Specifies default values that are inherited by all Dgraph components. These values include host IDs, data processing paths, and Dgraph flags.LiveAppServerCluster.xml- Specifies your application server clusters, the servers within each cluster, and the applications running on a given Assember.LiveDgraphCluster.xml- Specifies the Dgraphs used in the live environment and a script that pushes configuration from Workbench to each Dgraph in the live cluster.WorkbenchConfig.xml- Specifies the Endeca Configuration Repository component and a script that promotes content from the authoring environment to the live environment.
For more information about these application configuration files, refer to the Oracle Commerce Guided Search Administrator's Guide.
