Initial Manage Services Configuration

Note: This section provides a framework for performing the initial configuration of one component of the Unica Discover system in a simplified deployment model. Depending on your Discover solution's deployment, extra configuration may be required.

The Discover Management System provides a single, central point from which you can manage all Discover servers, components, and their configurations. Through Manage Services, you define properties for individual Discover components and then schedule and execute jobs to push those configuration changes to all dependent servers.

  • See "Discover Management System" in the Unica Discover Administration Manual.

Through Manage Services, you can define, configure, and monitor the Windows pipelines that process hit data forwarded from the Unica Discover Network Capture Application to your Processing Servers for reporting purposes.

  • For more information about defining and configuring Windows pipelines, see "Manage Services Pipeline Editor" in the Unica Discover Administration Manual.
  • For more information about monitoring Windows pipelines, see "Manage Services Pipeline Status Tab" in the Unica Discover Administration Manual.

Manage Services also provides the means of managing your Discover database, including backup and import, as well as exporting XML configuration reports on the contents of Manage Services.

  • See "Manage Services Advanced Tab" in the Unica Discover Administration Manual.

This section provides a sequence of tasks to perform the initial configuration of the Discover Management System. Read the sections in the listed order to complete the necessary steps to get Manage Services up and running.
