- Command line arguments
- Specifies the command-line arguments to pass to the Java virtual machine (JVM) when
the generic server is started.
- Current State
- Indicates the current state of the generic server. The next time the server
is started, it will try to change to its desired state setting.
- Desired state
- Indicates the state the generic server should have the next time
it is started.
- Environment
- Specifies the environment variables and variable values to be used by the server.
To set variables, click the Environment field to display a dialog box. In
this box, enter variable names and values, clicking the Add button after each entry.
- Executable
- Specifies the path name of the server executable. Relative
path names are associated with the server working directory.
- Executable in use
- Indicates the current executable.
- Generic Server Name
- Specifies a name by which to manage the generic server.
- Group ID
- Specifies the name of the operating system group under which to run the server.
Note that the operating system group must exist on the machine where the server
will run before that server is started. This group must be assigned the necessary
operating system privileges for performing operations, such as creating output
files on the local file system. Additional information
specific to operating system
- Group ID in use
- Indicates the current group ID in use by the server.
- Maximum startup attempts
- Specifies the number of times to try starting the server before
discontinuing attempts.
- Name
- Specifies a name for the generic server. The name must be unique within
the administrative domain to which the generic server belongs.
- Node
- Specifies the name of node on which the server runs.
- Parent
- Specifies the node (physical machine) on which the generic server code is located.
- Ping initial timeout
- Specifies the maximum time in seconds for the server to finish initialization.
After this time elapses, the administrative server attempts to restart the server.
- Ping interval
- Specifies the frequency of communication attempts between the server and the
administrative server, to ensure that the server is running.
Adjust this value based on your requirements for restarting failed servers.
Decreasing the value
detects failures sooner; increasing the value reduces the frequency of pings
and reduces system overhead.
This value must be less than or equal to the Ping timeout value
and less than or equal to the Ping initial timeout value.
- Ping timeout
- Specifies the maximum time in seconds that can elapse after the last
successful ping, before the administrative server assumes the server has failed.
Adjust this value based on your requirements for restarting failed servers.
Decreasing the value shortens the time a server can be down before any restart
attempts.
This value must be a positive integer.
- Process ID (PID)
- Indicates the process ID of the generic server.
- Process priority
- Specifies the operating system process priority under which to run
the server. The lower the number, the greater the importance
of the process. Additional information specific to
operating system
This value must be a positive integer.
- Process priority in use
- Indicates the current process priority of the server.
- Server Name
- Specifies a name by which to manage the generic server.
- Standard error (stderr)
- Specifies the standard error stream for the operating system.
If the value of this property is set to the null string (""),
the stream is set to the null device.
If this property is set to a relative path name, the path is
associated with the server working directory. Any class of trace output can be
redirected to this file. By default, the output of the fatal, error and audit
trace classes is sent to this file.
Additional information specific to operating system
- Default: The file stderr.txt in the server working directory
- Standard error (stderr) in use
- Indicates the current standard error stream in use by the server.
Additional information specific to operating system
- Standard input (stdin)
- Specifies the standard input stream for the operating system.
If this property is set to the null string (""), the stream is
set to the null device.
If this property is set to a relative path name, the path is
relative to the server working directory.
Additional information specific to operating system
- Standard input (stdin) in use
- Indicates the current standard input stream in use by the server.
Additional information specific to operating system
- Standard output (stdout)
- Specifies the standard output stream for the operating system.
If this property is set
to the null string (""), the stream is set to the null device.
If this property is set to a relative path name, the path is
associated with the server working directory.
Additional information specific to operating system
- Default: The file stdout.txt in the server working directory.
- Standard output (stdout) in use
- Indicates the current standard output stream in use by the server.
Additional information specific to operating system
- Start time
- Indicates the most recent start time of the server.
- State
- Indicates the current state of the generic server. The next time this server
is started, it will try to change to its desired state setting.
- UID
- Specifies the user ID of the operating system under which to run the generic
server.
Note that the operating
system user must exist on the machine where the server will run before that server
is started. This user must be assigned the necessary operating system privileges for
performing operations such as creating output files on the local file system.
Additional information specific to operating system
- Legal Values: String of 8 or fewer characters
- Default: The ID used by the administrative server
- Umask
- Specifies an octal value that sets the operating system file creation mask
for the server.
The file creation mask specifies permissions that cannot initially be
granted for new files. When a new file is created, the system refuses to grant
the permissions specified in the file creation mask.
For example, a mask of 022 prevents write permission to group
members who own the file and to all other users who
do not own the file.
A mask of 022 grants the owner all permissions; it leaves the owner's
permissions the way the system specifies them.
If the system creates a file with privilege values of 777
(read, write and execute permissions
for owner, group and other), a file creation mask of 022 causes the creation of
the file with 755 privilege values (all permissions for the owner, but only read
and execute permissions for group and other).
- Legal Values: An integer in the octal range 0 through 0777
- Umask in use
- Indicates the mask in use by the server.
- User ID
- Specifies the User ID (UID) under which the generic server should run.
- User ID in use
- Indicates the user ID (UID) in use.
- Working directory
- Specifies the local directory in which to run the server. This directory
is used to determine the locations of input and output files with relative
path names. After starting a server, it is recommended that you do not
change the server working directory.
