CORBA 2.6.1 Administration Guide
range of values is 1 through 255. Set the value of Link depth to be less than or equal to the value of Max links. If
Max links is 0, use the default value of 1 for Link depth.
Send
timeout
Length of time in microseconds the LINKMON process waits for a server process I/O operation to complete. The
maximum time is 18 hours.
Log file
name
Name of the file to which server process output is written.
Object Transaction Service XID (OTSXID) Properties
When transaction context is inherited from one process to another, an imported transaction branch is created. A transaction branch is
represented by a new TMF transaction identifier called the XID. The root XID and any branch XIDs are not recognized by TMF or SQL as
representing the same transaction. This means that if a process such as an application starts a transaction and makes multiple invocations on
server processes, multiple XIDs can be created resulting in SQL errors or blocking. To solve this problem, NSotsTM includes an XID Broker
function.

Property Description
Maximum
servers
Maximum number of copies of a server process that can run in a server pool at the same time. The range of values
is 0 through 1.
Static
servers
Number of static servers, which are processes that are started automatically when the TS/MP environment starts.
(Dynamic servers are started as needed by the PATHMON process.) The range of values is 0 through 4095. The
value must not exceed the value of the Maximum servers field. For better performance, the number of static servers
should be close to or equal to the value for Maximum servers.
Process
name
Name of the server process. If you do not choose a name, the system assigns one when the process starts.
Processors List of CPUs in which server processes can run. Separate the CPU numbers with commas; for example, 1,2,5. If you
do not specify a list of CPUs, the system runs server processes in any available CPU. Specifying certain CPUs
requires the system to use only the CPUs in the list.
Process
priority
Priority at which the server process is run. The range of values is 1 through 199, the highest priority being 199.
Autorestart
attempts
Number of attempts to restart the server process, in the event of its abnormal termination. The maximum number is
32767.
Log file
name
Name of the file to which server process output is written.
Location Service Daemon (LSD) Properties
The Location Service Daemon (LSD) acts as a well-known entry point for initial external client connections. It also maps external clients to
Comm Servers. When a remote client initially invokes a method on a server object, the request goes to the LSD. The LSD checks the Comm
Server Map to determine if the remote client's host system is mapped to a Comm Server. If the remote client's host system has an entry in the
Comm Server Map, the LSD returns the address information for that Comm Server. If the remote client's host system is not registered in the
Comm Server Map, the LSD determines whether the request should be handled by a direct TCP server or by a Comm Server. If the request
should be handled by a TCP server and one is available, the LSD returns the TCP/IP address of that server. If no TCP server is available or the
request should be handled by a Comm Server, the LSD assigns the least busy Comm Server to the client. The address information sent to the
client by the LSD includes the TCP/IP address and port number of the least busy Comm Server. If Parallel TCP/IP is enabled, the TCP/IP
address sent is the next Comm Server available in round-robin fashion. The Comm Server then routes requests and responses between the
client and the application server. Note that the interactions among the servers described here are performed on behalf of the client by the Object
Request Broker™ infrastructure. These interactions are transparent to the client program, and no client programming is required.
