(1) Notes on overwrite installations
In Version 9, the save-rep flag has been added to the options parameter in the event server settings file (conf). Setting this flag saves the duplication prevention table of the event database to the file. If this flag is not set, the duplication prevention table is saved to memory. In this case, the table is deleted, and then re-created when the event server is restarted. As a result, it takes time to receive JP1 events forwarded from other hosts. We recommend that you set the save-rep flag in the event server that receives JP1 events forwarded from other hosts.
If you perform an overwrite installation from JP1/Base 08-00 or earlier, this flag will not be set. In this case, you must perform the following procedure to create the duplication prevention table in the file.
To create this table in the file:
-
Add the save-rep flag to the options parameter in the event server settings file.
For details on the event server settings file, see Event server settings file in 16. Definition Files.
-
Execute the jevdbmkrep command.
For details on the jevdbmkrep command, see jevdbmkrep in 15. Commands.
-
Start the event server.
