Distributed Mediation Servers can be added or deleted at runtime from the Client connected to the Central server. The Client connected to the Central Server has a global view of all the Distributed Mediation Servers connected to the Central Server. Therefore administration from the Client UI results in centralized control and easy maintenance of Distributed Mediation Server.
Adding a Distributed Mediation Server
Distributed Mediation Servers can be added from the client connected to the Central Server. This option is provided to apply some specific configurations to a Distributed Mediation Server before its installation and startup. After a Distributed Mediation Server is added, the configurations can be performed from the Runtime Administration UI. The steps to add a new Distributed Mediation Server are as follows:
Select the menu item Tools-->Add DMS from the Client menu bar.
Enter a name for the Distributed Mediation Server in the text field in the Add DMS dialog. For example, the name could be USA_DMS.

Click OK to add the Distributed Mediation Server.
To make any configuration changes before the Distributed Mediation Server is started, select Tools-->Runtime Administration.
Select the module node for which you want to effect configuration changes. For example, to make some discovery configurations, select Topology-->Discovery Configurator.
The left panel in the Discovery Configurator displays a list of all the available Distributed Mediation Servers. This list contains the new Distributed Mediation Server that has been added, i.e., USA_DMS.
Select the USA_DMS and perform the required configurations.
Click Apply.
Install the Distributed Mediation Server. Refer to Installation Instructions for details on how to install Distributed Mediation Server.
Invoke the startdms.bat/sh file from the <DMS_Home>/bin directory to start the Distributed Mediation Server with the required configurations.
Deleting a Distributed Mediation Server
Distributed Mediation Server that has registered with a Central Server can be deleted through the Java Client connected with the Central Server. The steps for deleting a Distributed Mediation Server are as follows:
From the Global DMS Map, select the Distributed Mediation Server to be deleted.
Right-click to get the object-specific menu and select the Delete DMS option.
A confirmation dialog pops up, as shown below. Select Yes to confirm deletion.

Before restarting the Distributed Mediation Server, reinitialize the database, using the script reinitialize_dms.bat/sh located in the <DMS Home>/bin directory.
