Optional: Configure buffering

The AVEVA Adapter for RDBMS can be configured to buffer data egressed from the adapter to endpoints. Buffering is configured through the buffering configuration parameters in the system configuration.

Note: We recommend that you do not modify the default buffering location unless it is necessary. Changes to the buffering configuration parameters only take effect during adapter service startup.

Postman

To configure buffering using Postman:

1. To initialize the configuration, use the PUT method in conjunction with the http://localhost:5590/api/v1/configuration/system/buffering REST endpoint.

   Note: If you installed the adapter to listen on a non-default port, update 5590 to the port number in use.

2. Copy and paste an example configuration for buffering into the Body section.

   For sample JSONs, see the Examples section.

3. Update the example JSON parameters for your environment.

4. Select Send to push the configuration to the adapter.

EdgeCmd

To configure buffering using EdgeCmd:

5. Using a text editor, create an empty text file.

6. Copy and paste an example configuration for buffering into the file.

7. Update the example JSON parameters for your environment.

   For sample JSONs, see the Examples section.

8. Save the file. For example, ConfigureBuffering.json.

9. Open a command line session. Change directory to the location of your saved file.

10. Use the following edgecmd command with the name of your JSON file. For this example, we will use ConfigureBuffering.json for the saved file.

    edgecmd -port <port number> -cid System set Buffering -file /.ConfigureBuffering.json
