Configuring Near Real Time updates during catalog updates

You can temporarily disable Near Real Time updates when doing catalog updates through the Management Center.

About this task

To enhance performance, you can temporarily disable the Near Real Time (NRT) updating while you run catalog updates through the Management Center for HCL Commerce (CMC). The feature is only disabled under these circumstances, and otherwise functions normally.

To disable NRT updates during CMC-based updates:

Procedure

Add the following entry in the STORECONF database table:

INSERT INTO STORECONF (storeent_id, name, value) VALUES (0, 'disableNRT', 'true');

Refresh the StoreConfigurationRegistry setting.
In Management Center, navigate to System Administration > Registries. Enter StoreConfigurationRegistry in Search > Update the registry.

Results

When you update the catalog in any way using Management Center, for example by changing a product name, no NRT event is triggered. The NiFi user interface shows no data flow for the operation.

What to do next

To re-enable NRT updates:

Update the STORECONF database table as follows:
```
UPDATE STORECONF SET value='false' WHERE name='disableNRT';
```
Refresh the StoreConfigurationRegistry setting as in Step 2.
