Configuring an Vector Mosaic data source

Option	Description
Workspace	Name of the workspace to contain the Vector Mosaic store.
Data Source Name	Name of the Vector Mosaic Store as it will be known to GeoServer.
Description	A full free-form description of the Vector Mosaic store.
Enabled	If checked, it enables the store. If unchecked (disabled), no data in the Vector Mosaic Store will be served from GeoServer.
delegateStoreName	The data source name of the data store previously created that holds the index information about the constituent vector granules. See here for more details about delegate store requirements.
connectionParameterKey	The delegate store has a mandatory field called "params". Params can either be a URI pointing at the granule resource location or it can be a configuration string in .properties format. (See Java Properties file for more details about the format) In the latter case this optional parameter specifies which key points at the location of the granule. Accepted values are "file" and "url".
preferredDataStoreSPI	This optional parameter can serve as an optimization to speed up the lookup of granule data stores. Instead of attempting to use the mandatory delegate params field (See delegate requirements for more details about delegate store requirements.) to look up supported data store types, the Vector Mosaic data store will use the data store SPI specified in this field to identify the correct type.
