Introduction
This section describes the process of copying channels
in Nirvana realms.
Copying channels using the Enterprise Manager enables
you to duplicate channels automatically across realms.
When a channel is copied, it's attributes and any events
found on the channel will be copied over onto the new
channel copy.
|  |
Firstly, by selecting the channel in the namespace
that you wish to copy and right-clicking on the node,
you will be presented with a menu that shows you the
various opotions for a channel node. The image below
shows this menu.
By selecting the 'Copy Channel' option, you will be
presented with a dialog that allows you to input the
details of the new channel copy. These details not only
include the channel attributes, but also the realm to
which the channel will be copied to. The image below
shows the copy channel dialog.
The image shows a drop down list containing all the
names of the realms that the enterprise manager is currently
connected to. By selecting a realm name from the list,
it is possible to create a copy of the selected channel
in that realm. Clicking on the 'OK' button will create
the channel on the selected realm and the channel will
then appear in the namespace tree. |
