      void processInstanceBatchEvent(String sourceName, String originatorMetadataCollectionId, String originatorServerName, String originatorServerType, String originatorOrganizationName, InstanceGraph instances)
      An open metadata repository is passing information about a collection of entities and relationships with the other repositories in the cohort.
      Parameters:
      sourceName - name of the source of the event. It may be the cohort name for incoming events or the local repository, or event mapper name.
      originatorMetadataCollectionId - unique identifier for the metadata collection hosted by the server that sent the event.
      originatorServerName - name of the server that the event came from.
      originatorServerType - type of server that the event came from.
      originatorOrganizationName - name of the organization that owns the server that sent the event.
      instances - multiple entities and relationships for sharing.
    • processConflictingInstancesEvent

      void processConflictingInstancesEvent(String sourceName, String originatorMetadataCollectionId, String originatorServerName, String originatorServerType, String originatorOrganizationName, String targetMetadataCollectionId, TypeDefSummary targetTypeDef, String targetInstanceGUID, String otherMetadataCollectionId, InstanceProvenanceType otherOrigin, TypeDefSummary otherTypeDef, String otherInstanceGUID, String errorMessage)
      An open metadata repository has detected two metadata instances with the same identifier (guid). This is a serious error because it could lead to corruption of the metadata collections within the cohort. When this occurs, all repositories in the cohort delete their reference copies of the metadata instances and at least one of the instances has its GUID changed in its respective home repository. The updated instance(s) are redistributed around the cohort.
      Parameters:
      sourceName - name of the source of the event. It may be the cohort name for incoming events or the local repository, or event mapper name.
      originatorMetadataCollectionId - metadata collection id of the repository reporting the conflicting instance
      originatorServerName - name of the server that the event came from.
      originatorServerType - type of server that the event came from.
      originatorOrganizationName - name of the organization that owns the server that sent the event.
      targetMetadataCollectionId - metadata collection id of other repository with the conflicting instance
      targetTypeDef - details of the target instance's TypeDef
      targetInstanceGUID - unique identifier for the source instance
      otherOrigin - origin of the other (older) metadata instance
      otherMetadataCollectionId - metadata collection of the other (older) metadata instance
      otherTypeDef - details of the other (older) instance's TypeDef
      otherInstanceGUID - unique identifier for the other (older) instance
      errorMessage - description of the error.
    • processConflictingTypeEvent

      void processConflictingTypeEvent(String sourceName, String originatorMetadataCollectionId, String originatorServerName, String originatorServerType, String originatorOrganizationName, String targetMetadataCollectionId, TypeDefSummary targetTypeDef, String targetInstanceGUID, TypeDefSummary otherTypeDef, String errorMessage)
      An open metadata repository has detected an inconsistency in the version number of the type used in an updated metadata instance compared to its stored version.
      Parameters:
      sourceName - name of the source of the event. It may be the cohort name for incoming events or the local repository, or event mapper name.
      originatorMetadataCollectionId - metadata collection id of the repository reporting the conflicting instance
      originatorServerName - name of the server that the event came from.
      originatorServerType - type of server that the event came from.
      originatorOrganizationName - name of the organization that owns the server that sent the event.
      targetMetadataCollectionId - metadata collection id of other repository with the conflicting instance
      targetTypeDef - description of the target instance's TypeDef
      targetInstanceGUID - unique identifier for the source instance
      otherTypeDef - details of the other (older) instance's TypeDef
      errorMessage - description of the error.
