CONTROL SERVER
Defaults for file name expansion are based on the values of the SYSTEM and
DEFAULT attributes of the associated NODE object.
IN file-name
specifies the name of the IN file in the startup message; this could be a DEFINE
name.
Defaults for file name expansion are based on the values of the SYSTEM and
DEFAULT attributes of the associated NODE object.
MAXSERVERS number
for distributed server classes, specifies the maximum number of server process
reservations that can be distributed for this server class by all LCS processes in the
Pathway/XM environment. (During some internal Pathway/XM operations, it is
possible for up to twice the specified number of server process reservations to be
active simultaneously, for a very short time.) The value you specify is validated and
adjusted to conform to the value assigned to NUMSTATIC.
For replicated server classes, specifies the naximum number of server processes in
each PATHMON environment that can run at the same time. This attribute is not
valid for direct server classes.
number must be a value from 0 through 4094.
NUMSTATIC number
for distributed server classes, specifies the number of server process reservations
that the LCS permanently holds for a server class. number must be a value from 0
through 4094. If you omit this attribute, the default is 0. If you specify a value of 1
or larger for a distributed server class, number server processes are automatically
started when the server class is started. The LCS starts additional server processes as
needed.
For replicated and direct server classes the following paragraphs apply: specifies the
maximum number of static servers within the server class. These servers can be
started using the PXMCOM START SERVER command or as a result of a link
request. These servers remain running until a STOP SERVER command is issued or
all of their links are returned by link managers (that is, TCP or LINKMON
processes).
number must be a value from 0 through 4094. If you omit this attribute, the default
is 0 (that is, all servers are dynamic). The PATHMON process does not create a
server until it receives a link request from a link manager. When NUMSTATIC is 0,
the first link to a server class counts as a static link in the STATS command display.
