OpenTP1 Version 7 System Definition

[Contents][Index][Back][Next]

6.1 Definition processing

A multi-OpenTP1 system is defined as several OpenTP1 systems operating independently on one machine.

  1. Different partitions or different files for each different OpenTP1 system are allocated for use as an OpenTP1 file system.
  2. A different definition file storage directory is created for each OpenTP1 system.
  3. A definition file for each OpenTP1 system is created under the respective directory.

However, definition parameters, as summarized in Table 6-1, must be different for each OpenTP1 system. For details on the directory and other parameters, see the manual OpenTP1 Operation.

Table 6-1 Definition parameters which must be different for each OpenTP1 system

1 When you specify the host name (or IP address) of the local host as the node name, make sure you do not use the same port number twice.

To perform a remote procedure call among the OpenTP1 systems in the multi-OpenTP1 system environment, define the host names of the OpenTP1 nodes other than the local node in the all_node operand of the system common definition of each OpenTP1 node. Then specify Y in the rpc_multi_tp1_in_same_host operand.
