Assigning the Topology Components to the Namespace Partitions - Instantiation

In DXmanager, the process of assigning hosts, sites, or regions to namespace partitions is called instantiation. After the configuration is deployed, this process creates one or more DSAs to serve the namespace partitions.

At the end of this process, each namespace partition has one or more DSAs assigned to it.

DXmanager does not do everything required to create a DSA. You still have to provide any DSA specific properties. You also need to do the following tasks:

• Set up any non-DXmanager configuration; that is, all the non-knowledge configuration. There is also some knowledge configuration that is not yet set up by DXmanager
• Load or synchronize data into the datastore
