This topic provides links to documentation about the VMware Tanzu GemFire cache.xml
file.
Use the cache.xml
file to set up general cache facilities and behavior and to create and initialize cached data regions. These topics document cache.xml
requirements, provide hierarchical diagrams of <cache>
and <client-cache>
elements, and describe the function of each element.
Note: You can configure most elements of the cache.xml file and apply it to your entire cluster by using the gfsh and cluster configuration service. See gfsh Limitations for a list of items you cannot configure in gfsh and must still configure in cache.xml.
This section documents cache.xml file requirements and variables. It also points you to specific element sections for server, client, and WAN configuration.
This section shows the hierarchy of <cache>
element sub-elements that you use to configure Tanzu GemFire caches and servers.
