Mapping listeners to node types

To effectively use node classifications, you must map listeners to node types. When you start a node with a specific node type, the node runs only the listeners that are associated with that node type.

1. Open a listener rule form in one of the following ways:

   • From the Node Classification landing page

     1. Click Designer Studio > System > Operations > Node Classification.

     2. On the Listeners tab, click the name of a listener in the Listener column to open its rule form.

   • From the Explorer panel

     1. Click Records> Integration-Resources, and then click the listener that you want to configure: Email Listener, File Listener, JMS Listener, or MQ Listener.

     2. Click the name of a listener in the list to open its rule form.

2. In the Listener nodes section on the Properties tab, select NodeClassification based startup from the Startup option list.

   Note:  If you do not see the Startup option list, clear the Block startup check box.

3. In the Classification section, click the Plus icon to add a node type.
4. In the Node Type field, press the Down Arrow key and select a node type from the list. The listener runs for all the nodes that are started with the node type or types that you select.

• Search – The listener runs on a search node for search jobs.

• WebUser – The listener runs on a web user node for web user jobs.

• BIX – The listener runs on a BIX node for BIX jobs.

• BackgroundProcessing – The listener runs on a background node.

• Custom1, Custom2, Custom3, Custom4, Custom5 – The listener runs on the selected custom node.

5. Optional: Repeat steps 3 through 4 to add another node type to the same listener.

6. Click Save.

Note:  To run the listener on all the node types, select Run on all nodes from the Startup option list and save the rule form.
