Several Central Nodes Handle Events for Distributed
Nodes
Several Central Nodes Handle Events for Distributed Nodes
To have several central nodes handle events for distributed nodes, create a
conglomerate nonresident template file for use on two or more central nodes. This file
will contain all of the templates needed to interpret events from the distributed nodes
and from the central nodes. It is assumed that each central node can support events
from each of the central and distributed nodes.
Use the procedures in Central Node Handles Events for All Distributed Nodes on
page 6-7, with these modifications.
Procedure 1
•
For Step 1, install the new version of software on all of the central and distributed
nodes.
•
For Step 3, run TEMPLI on one of the central nodes and merge the nonresident
template files of all the nodes that will share events. This includes both central and
distributed nodes.
•
For Step 4, use SCF to install the conglomerate resident and nonresident template
files on the central nodes.
Procedure 2
•
For Step 1, you are preparing the SYSGENR CONFTEXT file for each of the
central nodes. (Prepare one file for each central node.)
•
For Step 3, prepare the SYSGENR CONFTEXT file of each of the central nodes.
•
For Step 3b, include in the CONFTEXT file the template object files for the central
nodes and all nodes that the central nodes support.
•
For Step 4, install the software on the central nodes. Use the modified CONFTEXT
files.
