Configuring ECE for a Multischema BRM Environment

To configure ECE for a multischema BRM environment:

  • Configure a Rated Event Formatter instance to process rated events belonging to each BRM schema. See "Configuring Rated Event Formatter" in ECE Implementing Charging.

  • Configure a Customer Updater instance for each schema. To configure multiple Customer Updater instances, do the following:

    • Use the ECC AddNode command to add a Customer Updater process for each BRM schema. For example, to configure three Customer Updater processes, add three nodes named customerUpdater, customerUpdaterSchema2, and customerUpdaterSchema3. See "Adding Nodes".

    • Use a JMX editor to configure the Customer Updater instance MBeans. Use a different value in the schemaNumber attribute for each Customer Updater process. See "Configuring Customer Updater".

      Note:

      To support account migration, the configuration for each Customer Updater instance must specify the name of the Account Migration Manager (AMM) acknowledgment queue in the amtAckQueueName attribute. (All BRM database schema use the same AMM acknowledgment queue).
