Issue/Introduction

How to modify names for Devtest components (Registry, Coordinator, Simulator, VSE) with fully qualified SSL url names or with names other than default component names while starting components.

Ex: My requirement is to start VSE component with name as SSL://MyServer:2013/MyVSE1 and connect to registry which is running on different server (Server1) with URL as SSL://SERVER1:2010/MyRegistry.

Environment

Resolution

To modify names for Devtest components, use below properties in local.properties file before starting specific components.

lisa.registryName=<Registry_Name>

lisa.coordName=<Coordinator_Name>

lisa.simulatorName=<Simulator_Name>

lisa.vseName=<VSE_Name>

Ex:  To start VSE with name as SSL://MyServer:2013/MyVSE1 and connect to registry which is running on different server (Server1) with URL as SSL://SERVER1:2010/MyRegistry, add lisa.vseName= SSL://MyServer:2013/MyVSE1 and lisa.registryName=SSL://SERVER1:2010/MyRegistry in local.properties file and restart the components to reflect these changes.
