Upgrade instructions

New settings

settings.harvester.harvesting.heritrix.monitorResetInterval: The time interval in seconds after which the HarvestMonitorServer will reset the job state data. This is a simple way to detect the end of a job. The default is 300 seconds (5 minutes).

settings.harvester.harvesting.heritrix.crawlLoopWaitTime: Time interval in seconds to wait during a crawl loop in the harvest controller. The default is 20 seconds.

settings.harvester.harvesting.heritrix.abortIfConnectionLost: A boolean flag. If set to true, the harvest controller will abort the current crawl when the JMX connection is lost. If set to false it will only log a warning, leaving the crawl operator shutting down harvester manually. Used only by the BnfHeritrixController. The default is true.

settings.harvester.harvesting.heritrix.waitForReportGenerationTimeout: Maximum time in seconds to wait for Heritrix to generate report files once crawling is over. The default is 600 seconds (10 minutes).

settings.harvester.harvesting.heritrixLauncherClass: The implementation of the HeritrixLauncher abstract class to be used. The default is dk.netarkivet.harvester.harvesting.controller.DefaultHeritrixLauncher.
