PROGRESS Version 6 Release Notes

Version 6.3
Univel UNIXware
December 1993

SPX Support Protocol


The current UNIXware SPX Service Advertising does not allow
PROGRESS to support the SPX protocol as it supports SPX
on other environments. PROGRESS can only support SPX as
a protocol server on UNIXware. For PROGRESS to support
SPX with the TLI interface, you must install UNIXware 1.1.

For a UNIXware PROGRESS database to support SPX as a server
protocol, you must follow these steps.

1 #
Edit the /etc/service file so that the service name used
with the PROGRESS database(s) is related to SPX rather
than TCP. For example, change demosv 2500/tcp to demosv
2500/spx.

2 #
Create a file called 0x9f. In this file, make an entry
that contains the port number followed by the service name.
For example, type:

2500 demosv

Make an entry for each remote server you start for the
database(s). Use the 0x9f file with two script files spxserve
and spxshut located in the $DLC directory.

3 #
Use an account with root privileges to send the SIGHUP
signal to the sapd daemon and to copy the 0x9f file to
/var/spool/sap/out.

Start the PROGRESS broker with a Message Buffer Size (-Mm)
startup option of 512 and manually spawn the remote servers
with the Manual Server (-m2) startup option.

The sapd daemon is incapable of knowing when the PROGRESS
database server is shutdown. Use the spxshut script after
the server shuts down (or crashes) to send a signal to
the sapd daemon.
