SQL/MX Connectivity Service Manual for SQL/MX Release 3.2 (H06.25+, J06.14+)

$zhome, name $mxo, StartMode
2-> application
2-> startupmsg “-pn 35000”, program $system.zmxodbc.mxoas
3-> start #mxoas
4-> status #mxoas
The above example indicates that the process $mxo starts from file
$system.zmxodbc.mxoas and uses the port number 35000.
Your installation might require different parameters or to configure a different set of CPUs. For
more information, see the SCF Manual for the Kernel Subsystem.
Starting an MXCS Service manually
To start the MXCS service, execute the MXOAS command at the TACL prompt to start the association
server:
MXOAS /NAME proc-name, NOWAIT, TERM terminal-name,
CPU cpu-number/ [-TCP tcp-process] [-EMS collector-name]
[-PN port-number] [-PR port-range] [-I] [-E detail-level]
[-RMC alternate collector-name]
[-TMC alternate collector-name ]
NAME as-name
specifies the process name of the MXCS association server.
TERM terminal-name
specifies the name of a valid terminal to be used as the home terminal for all MXCS
processes. Specify a terminal that is always available, for example, $ZHOME.
If a home terminal is not specified, or it is a dynamic telnet window, the default is
the terminal used to start the MXOAS process. If that terminal is a dynamic telnet
window and it closes, MXCS stops accepting new connections because the window
is valid only for current server connections.
NOTE: If the home terminal closes, the MXCS service cannot create new servers
or process new connection requests.
CPU cpu-number
specifies the primary CPU in which the association server is to run.
-TCP tcp-process
specifies the Guardian name of the TCP/IP process. If TCPIP^process^name is
defined before starting MXOAS, that name is used. If TCPIP^process^name is
not defined, the default name is $ZTC0.
-EMS collector-name
specifies the name of the EMS collector to be used for event messages generated
by MXCS; the default is $0.
-PN port number
specifies the starting port number (in decimal) for connections to the MXCS
association server; the default is 18650. This port number is used as the single
point of contact for all ODBC applications connecting to that IP address; internally
MXCS manages the range of port numbers defined by -PR to ensure that each server
has a separate port within the port range.
