Creating a Copier

Describes how to create a copier with maprcli and REST.

The security certificate CA chain and the replication rules file are required for auto load-balancing of copier tasks on the cluster.

If the -iscontentinline parameter is set to false while creating a copier, you must maintain a copy of the security certificate CA chain and the replication rules file on on all cluster nodes that run the mapr-och service.

If you set the -iscontentinline parameter to true, you do not need to maintain the copies of security certificate CA chain and replication rules file on all cluster nodes that run the mapr-och service.

You can set -iscontentinline parameter to true from the command line only.
