6.1 Using JP1/Base on a single network

This section describes how to use JP1/Base on a single network and how you should configure the communication settings for this use.

If you only use physical hosts, JP1/Base can be used in the default setting (ANY binding method). There is no need to change the communication settings.

Even when you use JP1/Base in a cluster system, there is no need to change the communication settings if you configure JP1/Base for the cluster system by using either the GUI (jp1bshasetup.exe) or the jbs_setup_cluster command in Windows, or the jp1base_setup_cluster command in UNIX, which all automatically set JP1/Base to use the IP binding method. If you configure JP1/Base for a cluster system, the physical hosts receive the communications to the physical hosts and the logical hosts receive the communications to the logical hosts.

The following figure shows the communication procedure when you use JP1/Base in a cluster system on a single network.

Note:

If you perform an upgrade installation of JP1/Base version 09-00 or earlier in an environment that only uses physical hosts, you will need to set the event server settings file (conf) and API setting file (api) before using JP1/Base in a cluster environment.
