Multiple LPAR configuration
The multiple LPAR configuration consists of a single ARSSOCKD library server modules and multiple ARSOBJD object server modules.
The object servers can be installed on separate LPARS or separate
systems. These separate systems can be on z/OS®, AIX® or
any other platform that is supported by Content Manager OnDemand. This setup allows for horizontal
scalability with the ability to use multiple technologies as appropriate.
The only constraint is that clients must have access to all systems
through TCP/IP. Each Content Manager OnDemand server
has its own set of configuration files. The parameters in all configuration
files must be set such that all the servers are part of the same instance.
The Content Manager OnDemand clients connect
to the IP address listening port of the ARSSOCKD library server module.
The documents are retrieved from the various object servers based
on location information returned by the library server. The fact that
there are multiple object servers, possibly at multiple locations,
is not apparent to the client systems.
