MX Release 3.2.1 (H06.26+, J06.15+)

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.

-PR port-range

specifies the number of ports that can be used simultaneously for connections to

the MXCS association server (including the starting port number). The minimum

requirement is 3 port numbers; the default is 250. The port range specified must

not conflict with port numbers used by other applications.

-I

specifies the interactive startup mode for the association server. When this mode

is specified, the association server is created in the STOPPED state and you must

use NSM/web or the interactive MXCI interface to enable it. The default is the

non-interactive state.

-E detail-level

0 Minimum, critical events only

1 Informational events

2 Internal state transition events

The default value is 0.

WARNING! Setting the -E value greater than zero can result in overflowing EMS log.

-RMC alternate-collector-name

specifies the name of the alternate EMS collector to be used for resource statistics

generated by MXCS. If option [-RMC alternate-collector-name] is not provided,

MXCS Server Trace sends trace messages to the primary EMS collector. You must

start the alternate collector before starting MXCS. If resource statistics is enabled

but the alternate collector is not started, an error message is logged to the default

collector ($0). See “Configuring Statistics Collection” (page 40).

-TMC alternate-collector-name

specifies the name of the alternate EMS collector to be used for server tracing

generated by MXCS. If option [-TMC alternate-collector-name] is not provided,

MXCS Server Trace sends trace messages to the primary EMS collector. You must

start the alternate collector before starting MXCS. If server tracing is enabled but

the alternate collector is not started, an error message is logged to the default

collector ($0). See “Configuring Server Tracing” (page 46).

-SSL

indicates that MXOAS must be started in SSL Encryption mode. If the SSL initialization

fails, this option is ignored, and MXOAS is started without SSL encryption (pass

through mode). You can see the SSL Mode Activated message in the EMS log

if MXOAS starts in SSL Encryption mode.
