CORBA 2.6 Administration Guide
TCP process
Name of the TCP process that is managing the selected host address. One
TCP process can manage multiple host addresses. TCP processes can be
spread across CPUs for load balancing. If the "Use Parallel Library
TCP/IP" check box is checked, you must specify a TCP process that is
enabled for Parallel Library TCP/IP.
Use Parallel Library TCP/IP If checked, enables the BSD to use Parallel Library TCP/IP.
Server Configuration Options
Property Description
Maximum servers
If the check box for Use Parallel Library TCP/IP is not checked, this field is set to
one. If it is checked, you may specify the number of servers.
Static servers
If the check box for Use Parallel Library TCP/IP is not checked, this field is set to
one. If it is checked, this field is set to match the number of Maximum Servers you
specify. Or if you enter a number of Static Servers, the Maximum Servers field
will be set to match what you enter here.
Process name
Name of the server process. If you do not choose a name, the system assigns one
when the process starts. If the check box for Use Parallel Library TCP/IP is
checked you must enter at least as many names as the number of servers that have
been specified.
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. If the check box for Use Parallel Library
TCP/IP is checked you must enter at least as many CPU numbers as the number of
servers that have been specified. This field cannot contain duplicate CPU numbers.
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.
Comm Server Properties
The Comm Server is a router that allows remote clients to communicate with application servers on a
host system. A remote client uses a single port to access any number of application servers. (In some
other products, a separate port is required for each application to which a client connects.) Allowing
connections to multiple application servers through one port reduces network resource consumption.
Network resource use can be important when a large number of remote clients request server resources.
A single Comm Server can handle requests from many remote clients. As requests increase, you can
configure additional Comm Servers to balance the load.
If Parallel Library TCP/IP has been enabled on the General tab, the fields available for specifying Comm
Server properties differ. The properties for each option are listed separately in the following tables.
