In the current implementation, ACM supports multi-participant with same supported element Type but different participantId, so they need different properties file.
...
Participant replicas can be a kubernetes StatefulSets that consume two different properties file with unique UUIDs and unique consumer groups.
The StatefulSet uses the SPRING_CONFIG_NAME environment variable pointing to the spring application properties file unique to each of the participant replica.
Each of the properties file with the names pod-0.yaml, pod-1.yaml is mounted to the volumes. And the SPRING_CONFIG_NAME variable can be set to /path/to/$HOSTNAME.yaml to use the corresponding
properties file.
By this approach the participant can have multiple replicas with different UUIDs and kafka consumer groups to work with a shared data.
env:
- name: HOSTNAME
valueFrom:
fieldRef:
fieldPath: metadata.name
- name: SPRING_CONFIG_NAME
value: /path/to/${HOSTNAME}.yaml
For example considering the http participant replica, ${HOSTNAME} will be "policy-http-ppnt-0" and "policy-http-ppnt-1" and their
corresponding properties files with the names "http-ppnt-0.yaml" and "http-ppnt-1.yaml" is volume mounted.
