The Base TRANSFER definition also defines the following process and TRANSFER
names:
Correspondent directory name
This sets the directory name. All nodes in a network must use the same
correspondent directory name if the nodes are to communicate with one another.
The installation procedures provide CORR as the default name.
PATHMON process name
This sets the PATHMON process name under which the TRANSFER PATHWAY
system is to run at your node. The installation procedures provide $TRPM as the
default name.
Asynchronous correspondent name
This sets the depot name. The installation procedures provide _TRANSFER_ as
the default name.
Correspondent name for default model depot
This sets the default name for the model depot created at Base TRANSFER
initialization. The model depot is used to provide default profiles when a model
depot is not specified for a new correspondent. The installation procedures
provide MODEL-DEPOT as the default name.
Name for default model group depot
This sets the default name for the model group depot created at Base TRANSFER
initialization. The model group depot is used to provide default profiles when a
group depot is not specified for a new group. The installation procedures provide
MODEL-GROUP as the default name.
Name for public group depot
This sets the name for the public group depot created at Base TRANSFER
initialization. The installation procedures provide PUBLIC as the name; the name
PUBLIC is not configurable.
Correspondent name for the first system administrator
This sets the name of a system administrator depot created at the initialization of
Base TRANSFER. This system administrator has both read and write
administrative privileges. Typically, the system administrator is an employee who
is to have administrative responsibilities. The installation procedures provide
SYS-ADMIN as the default name for the first system administrator.
Figure 2-1 shows the Base TRANSFER configuration. The figure shows the TAREQ-
TCPs, pseudo-terminals, programs, server classes together with the servers configured
in the classes, and other TRANSFER objects defined with Base TRANSFER. Objects
that can be defined with multiple processes or terminals of the same type are shown
within three ellipses. Objects that can be defined with only a single process are shown
within one symbol. Where a one-to-one correspondence is required between the
number of pseudo-terminals and servers, a line connects the two objects.
