Configuring the basic Data Processing Service settings

The Data Processing Service (DPS) settings can be configured when you register the DPS. You can also configure the DPS settings at a later time. You use one of the system topology views to select the DPS to configure.

When you configure the DPS settings, the panels that appear vary depending on the components that are deployed on the host system. In addition, the DPS settings determine what information appears. For example, options to enable data sources only appear if the DPS is assigned to the DPS Collector role.

If you modify more than one DPS at a time, only the common setting tabs and fields appear. Select each DPS individually to view all settings that apply to the DPS.

Note:

If you make a change to the basic Data Processing Service settings, the changes do not appear immediately. You must close and reopen the Component settings dialog box before the new options appear.
