6.3.11 Setting the binding method applied to the outgoing communication used in the execution of event jobs

By default, the ANY binding method is set as the binding method applied to the communication used in the execution of event jobs to match the JP1/Base communication settings. In a cluster configuration, the IP binding method is automatically set for both physical and logical hosts when the cluster system is set up. The IP binding method is also set for both outgoing communication and incoming communication.

If multi-LAN connection is used, separate binding methods can be set in the JP1/Base communication settings for outgoing communication and incoming communication.

However, you can explicitly ensure that the binding method applied to incoming communication is always applied to the outgoing communication used in the execution of event jobs, regardless of the JP1/Base communication settings, by using the procedure described below.

Note, however, that if you install JP1/AJS3 as a new installation, you must set the binding method in the JP1/Base communication settings without using the procedure described below. If JP1/AJS3 is installed as an upgrade from 06-51 or earlier version of JP1/AJS2 in which the binding method applied to outgoing communication used in the execution of event jobs is already set, that setting is inherited. Note, however, that if JP1/AJS3 is re-installed, the inherited settings are lost. If you still want to use the same settings that were used in JP1/AJS2 06-51 or earlier, you will have to specify the settings manually.

The following describes the procedure for setting the binding method applied to the outgoing communication used in the execution of event jobs. Note that the procedure must be performed on the manager host and all agent hosts on which event jobs will be executed.

Organization of this subsection

(1) Definition procedure
(2) Environment setting parameter

(1) Definition procedure

(a) For a standard configuration

In Windows Control Panel, open the Services administrative tool, and stop the following service:
- JP1/AJS3 service
Execute the following command to set the environment setting parameter described in (2) below:
```
jajs_config -k definition-key "parameter-name"=value
```
Restart JP1/AJS3.

The new settings are applied.

(b) For a compatible ISAM configuration

In Windows Control Panel, open the Services administrative tool, and stop the following service:
- JP1/AJS3 service
In a text editor such as Notepad, create a configuration file that defines the environment setting parameter described in (2) below.
Save the file and then execute the following command:
```
jbssetcnf configuration-file-name
```
The path of the jbssetcnf command is JP1/Base-installation-folder\bin\jbssetcnf. For details on this command, see the Job Management Partner 1/Base User's Guide.
Restart JP1/AJS3.

The contents of the configuration file are applied to the system.

(2) Environment setting parameter

Table 6‒51: Environment setting parameter used to set the binding method for outgoing communication
Definition key	Environment setting parameter	Explanation
For all scheduler services `[{JP1_DEFAULT\|logical-host}\JP1AJS2\SCHEDULER\EV\MANAGER]`^# For an event/action control agent `[{JP1_DEFAULT\|logical-host}\JP1AOMAGENT]`^# For a compatible ISAM configuration `[{JP1_DEFAULT\|logical-host}\JP1AOMMANAGER]`^#	`"ClientBindFlag"=`	Specifies the binding method applied to outgoing communication.

#:: The specification of the {JP1_DEFAULT|logical-host} part depends on whether the host is a physical host or a logical host. For a physical host, specify JP1_DEFAULT. For a logical host, specify the logical host name.

For details about the definition of these environment setting parameters, see 2.4.2(12) ClientBindFlag in the Job Management Partner 1/Automatic Job Management System 3 Configuration Guide 2.
