Adding Brokers to a Territory
Use the following procedure to add one or more Brokers to an existing territory. (This action is also known as "joining" a territory.)
Note:
To use this procedure, the territory to which you want to add the
Broker must already exist. If the territory does not already exist, see
Creating a Territory.
When you add a Broker to a territory, its client groups and document types are automatically synchronized with the other Brokers in the territory. If the join process encounters conflicting definitions that it cannot reconcile, you will receive an error message. To add the Broker to the territory, you must manually reconcile the conflict or accept modifications that the join process proposes.
Before you add a
Broker to a territory, review the
Requirements Checklist and be certain it meets the requirements outlined in the checklist.
To add a
Broker to a territory
1. In My webMethods: Messaging > Broker Territories > Broker s.
2. In the Territory Broker s List, click Add Broker.
3. From the Territory to Join list on the Add Territory Broker page, select the territory to which you want to add a Broker. You can also select a specific Broker in a territory that you want to connect to.
4. Use the following steps to select the Brokers to add to the territory.
a. In the Broker Server field, select the Broker Server that hosts the Brokers that you want to add.
b. Use the Selected Broker s controls to specify the Brokers that you want to add to territory.
Note:
Only Brokers that are not already members of another territory appear in the Available list. If the Broker that you want to add to the territory does not appear in this list, check whether it is already a member of another territory.
5. Click Join.
If the join process encounters conflicting client group or document type definitions during the synchronization process, you will receive an error message. To join the territory, you can either manually edit the metadata or accept changes proposed by the join process.
