Removal of two Web services from public access

The Administration Web Service and the Control Web Service of the Endeca Server have become private interfaces in this release. These interfaces are not intended to be used by Endeca Server clients and are not accessible at the Endeca Server host and port.

The operations from the Control Web Service are available through the endeca-cmd utility, which lets you manage data domains, or through the Manage Web Service that, together with the Cluster Web Service, is backing up this utility.

The following table describes how the operations from the Administration Web Service are replaced (or no longer supported) in this release:
Administration Web Service Operation in Endeca Server 7.4.0 Treatment in Endeca Server 7.5.1
createSnapshotOperation Use the endeca-cmd export-dd <data-domain> [--offline-name <exported-domain>] command, or the exportDataDomain operation of the Manage Web Service.

These options let you export the index of the specified data domain by taking a snapshot of the index and copying it into an internally stored file. A snapshot represents a copy of the index files only, and does not capture any other characteristics of the data domain, such as the Dgraph configuration or the data domain profile used when it was created.

Important: On Linux, you can export a data domain that is either enabled or disabled. On Windows, only a disabled data domain can be exported.

When an enabled data domain is exported, it continues to run, but a copy of its index is stored in an offline directory on a shared file system.

getVersionOperation

Use endeca-cmd version, or the version operation of the Manage Web Service, to list the version of the Oracle Endeca Server and the Dgraph processes for each of the enabled data domains hosted in the Endeca Server.

listJobsOperation and cancelJobOperation These operations for managing jobs in the Dgraph process are no longer supported, because in this release, the Endeca Server Java application manages the Dgraph process and its underlying jobs. Monitoring the Dgraph jobs directly is no longer a required task for system administrators.
