Report and Data Server on Machine 1, Data Nodes on Machines 2-N

You can install the Report Server and Data Server on a single machine, and distribute the Data Nodes across a different set of machines.

To configure the data grid this way, follow the steps below:

1. Install the Report Server on the desired machine by using the 'Stan­dard Server' option of the Style Intelligence installer.

 

Note: You must access Enterprise Manager in order for the Data Nodes to connect successfully.

2. Start the Style Intelligence server. In a browser, log into the Enter­prise Manager.

3. For each Data Node machine, configure the node by following the steps below:

a. Run the Style Intelligence installer on the machine that will host the Data Node.

b. On the 'License Key' page, enter the appropriate “G” key or “H” key.

c. On the 'Installation Type' page, select the 'Data Grid Node' option.

 

d. On the 'Server Configuration' page, set the 'Node host name' and 'Node address' as appropriate for the machine onto which you are installing the Data Node. Set the 'Server host name' and 'Server address' to the name and address of the machine hosting the Data Server.

 

e. Follow the rest of the on-screen installation instructions to complete the installation of the Data Node.

f. Launch the Data Node from the Windows Start menu. (Alternatively, execute bin/DataGrid.exe.)

This will open a command window. After a few moments, the command window should indicate a successful connection to the Report/Data Server machine.

4. On the Report Server machine, return to Enterprise Manager. Open the 'Server' > 'Data Grid' page under the Server tab. Verify that the Data Node machine you have started is shown with “alive” sta­tus.

To create a materialized view in this data grid environment, use Enterprise Manager on the Report/Data Server machine. See Creating a Materialized View.
