Installation
The RDF SGP is packaged with the RDF/IMP and IMPX products and, by default, is
installed on $SYSTEM.RDF. You may, however, place this object file wherever you
want. If you install the SGP object file somewhere other than $SYSTEM.RDF, you must
ensure that the ASAP configuration points to the correct location (by way of the SET
RDF command within the ASAP command interface). Refer to the ASAP Server Manual
for details about the SET RDF command.
Auto Discovery
To simplify configuration, the RDF SGP automatically attempts to discover all the RDF
environments on the system where it is started by searching RDF control subvolumes on
$SYSTEM for RDF configuration files. By default it monitors the status of all RDF/IMP
and IMPX environments it finds.
Note. Before starting the RDF SGP for the first time, you should purge any control subvolumes
that are old and no longer being used to ensure that ASAP monitors only current RDF
environments.
