[EHPweb] PDL sender configuration

[Peter Lombard]

Jeremy,

There is something I am not understanding about what you want me to do with my
ProductClient config.ini file. The file included in the zip archive for
version 1.7.1 and 1.7.3 contains these lines, among others:

 ## ProductSenders are used when creating and sending products for distribution
 # a comma delimited list of section names
 # NOTE: most users should NOT change this
 senders = sender_ehppdl1, sender_ehppdl2
...
 ###
 ## SENDERS
 ##
 ## Senders send products to hubs for Product Creators.
 #
 
 
 [sender_ehppdl1]
 type = gov.usgs.earthquake.distribution.SocketProductSender
 host = ehppdl1.cr.usgs.gov
 port = 11235
 
 
 [sender_ehppdl2]
 type = gov.usgs.earthquake.distribution.SocketProductSender
 host = ehppdl2.wr.usgs.gov
 port = 11235


Why aren't these line sufficient for ProductClient.jar 1.7.3?

Your instructions say:
 > - in the globals, set the senders list and trackerURL property:
 > 
 > senders = ehppdl1, ehppdl2
 > trackerURL = http://ehppdl1.cr.usgs.gov/tracker/
 > 
 > 
 > - add sections for each sender
 > 
 > [ehppdl1]
 > type = gov.usgs.earthquake.distribution.SocketProductSender
 > host = ehppdl1.cr.usgs.gov
 > port = 11235
 > 
 > [ehppdl2]
 > type = gov.usgs.earthquake.distribution.SocketProductSender
 > host = ehppdl2.wr.usgs.gov
 > port = 11235


Am I supposed to have two sets of sender lines? Or am I supposed to change the
lines that says "most users should NOT change this"?

It's not clear to me why this has to be so confusing!

Pete
