• Gateway Manager profile

  Multiexcerpt
  MultiExcerptName gw-manager-profile
  Prior to WSO2 API Manager 2.1.0, the Publisher and Gateway were required to be on two different cluster domains. However, from WSO2 API Manager 2.1.0 onwards  clustering is no longer a necessity, because the Publisher can play the role of the Gateway Manager. Therefore, now, the Gateway Manager profile (-Dprofile=gateway-manager) has been deprecated as it is redundant.
