Summary: Creates a space.

Overview

The createSpace utility is used to create a new space entity in the container.

A space can be memory-based or persistent-based (memory space). A memory space keeps all its data in virtual memory and loses all data when it shuts down, whether normally or abnormally – unless it is clustered. A persistent space keeps its data in a persistent backend and can therefore survive crashes. The createSpace utility provides the following options:

Usage: createSpace [container name] [space name] <options>
options:
           -h    prints help
           -schema          create space using the schema template
           -properties    properties file name used to overwrite default configuration properties.
           -c    create cluster space [URL to cluster configuration file]
           -l    lookup service hostname
           -r    RMI registry hostname
           -g    lookup groups
           -port container binding the space on this port
           -p    persistency options [SA-class] SA-url

Usage example with creating Persistent space:

createSpace [container name] [space name] -p com.j_spaces.sadapter.GenericJDBC.JDBCStorageAdapter c:
/GigaSpaces5.0EE/GenericJDBCProperties/CloudscapeProperties

Usage example with LookupService:

createSpace [container name] [space name] -l lookuphost -g group1 group2

Usage example with RMIRegistry:

createSpace [container name] [space name] -r rmiRegistryHost

Usage example creating clustered space:

createSpace [container name] [space name] -c http://webhost:8087/clusterConfigFile.xml

The general format for creating a space is:
Using Lookup: 

createspace [container name] [space name] -l lookuphost -g group1 group2

Using RMI registry:

createspace [container name] [space name] -r rmiRegistryHost
GigaSpaces supports space monitoring and management using JMX – The Java Management Extensions. For more details, refer to the JMX Management section.
