How to add a harvester more on the same machine and set all to HIGHPRIORITY selective harvesting

Using eg deploy_examplexml

  • Duplicate the existing harvester <applicationName> definition within <deployMachine>.

In the new duplicate harvester config, change all following duplicate values to new unique values within <deployMachine>:

  • <applicationInstanceId>
  • <common><jmx><port> and <rmiPort>
  • <heritrix><guiport> and <jmxPort>
  • <serverDir>harvester_high_2</serverDir>

and set

  • <queuePriority>HIGHPRIORITY</queuePriority>

eg:

  <applicationName name="dknetarkivetharvesterharvestingHarvestControllerApplication">
   <settings>
    <common>
     <applicationInstanceId>high2</applicationInstanceId>
     <jmx>
      <port>8112</port>
      <rmiPort>8212</rmiPort>
    </jmx>
   </common>
    <harvester>
     <harvesting>
      <queuePriority>HIGHPRIORITY</queuePriority> <heritrix>
       <guiPort>8192</guiPort> <!-- T: jmxPort to be modified by test (was 8093) --> <jmxPort>8193</jmxPort>
        <jmxUsername>controlRole</jmxUsername>
        <jmxPassword>R_D</jmxPassword>
     </heritrix>
      <serverDir>harvester_high_2</serverDir>
    </harvesting>
   </harvester>
  </settings>
 </applicationName>

How to configure which Heritrix report has to be uploaded in the metadata ARC file

Three settings properties control which heritrix reports are added to the metadata ARC file:

  • settingsharvesterharvestingmetadataheritrixFilePattern is a java pattern that allows you select which files in the crawl dir (not recursively) to include in the metadata ARC.
  • settingsharvesterharvestingmetadatareportFilePattern is also a java pattern that controls which subset of the files selected by heritrixFilePattern are to be considered as report files All the other files will be considered as setup files.
  • settingsharvesterharvestingmetadatalogFilePattern is a third java pattern that controls which files in the logs subdirectory of the crawldir are to be added as log files to the metadata ARC.
