As originally installed, your NonStop CORBA system is fully functional, but you may wish to alter the configuration at some later time. The
NonStop CORBA 2.6.1 Administration Guide describes how to use the HP NonStop Distributed Component Console software to modify the
configuration of your system. This guide includes information about the configuration files used and explains how to change configurations. The
guide also shows you how to optimize your system, including how to customize the HP NonStop TS/MP processes running in the system. For
users who prefer to use the command-line-based configuration tools, the guide gives instructions for using those techniques. This guide also
contains information about the NonStop CORBA system architecture.
Who Should Read This Guide
This guide is intended for CORBA application developers who are familiar with NonStop systems and the HP NonStop Kernel operating system.
Note:
This guide describes only the NonStop server differences and additions that allow standard CORBA applications to
work on the NonStop platform. The reader must be knowledgeable about Object Management Group’s (OMG)
CORBA standards and fully familiar with the OMG CORBA specifications, which are located at the following URL:
