Applying a custom processor patch to the Query service

Complete the following steps to apply a custom processor patch to the Query service.

Procedure

  1. Open a web browser and log in to the HCL License and Delivery portal website to download the code patch JAR.
  2. Place the code patch JAR into /patches directory. If this folder is mapped to an external storage volume, you can place the patch JAR there without logging into the Query container.
    Note: Ensure that you create a backup of the search-query.jar file before applying the patch. Unlike the NiFi patching script, the Query service patch script does not perform automatic backup and reversion.
  3. Restart the Query container to apply the patch during the next server start-up.

Results

The patch will be applied automatically upon next start up if the AUTO_PATCHING deployment variable is set to true. If you deploy using Kubernetes, then set AUTO_PATCHING to "true." If you are not using Kubernetes and the variable is not set to true, you must apply the patch manually. To manually apply the patch, log on to the container and run ./patch.sh from within the SETUP/bin directory.
