z/OS location service daemon settings
In a cell, one location service daemon definition exists for each sysplex node group. A location service daemon process runs on each system that has a node in a sysplex node group in that cell. When a client makes a remote call to an enterprise bean, a location service daemon determines which server or servers are eligible to process the request, and routes the request to the selected server. An example of a system is the z/OS® operating system on a logical partition (LPAR).
Changes made to these settings apply to the location service daemon in a sysplex node group.
This administrative console page is only visible if the node group contains z/OS nodes. To view this administrative console page, click
.Job name
Specifies the job name of the location service daemon. This name can be from one to eight characters. You can use alphanumeric or the national language characters of @#$.
Information | Value |
---|---|
Data type | String |
Default | None |
Start command
Specifies the command string that servers use to automatically start the location service daemon.
Information | Value |
---|---|
Data type | String |
Format | START location service daemon JCL procedure name The procedure name is defined at the node level during customization. You can change the procedure name on the WebSphere® Variables administrative console pages by going to . |
Example | START BBO6DMN |
Default | ${NODE_DAEMON_START_COMMAND} NODE_DAEMON_START_COMMAND is the configuration variable name whose value you can change on the WebSphere Variables administrative console pages. |
Listen IP name
Specifies the IP address on which the location service daemon listens. The Listen IP name must be either a dotted decimal IP address or an asterisk (*). The asterisk means that the location service daemon listens on all available IP addresses.
Information | Value |
---|---|
Data type | String |
Default | asterisk (*) |
Daemon IP name
Specifies the IP name that clients use to access enterprise beans and Common Object Request Broker Architecture (CORBA) components on servers that belong to the sysplex node group that this location service daemon serves.
The daemon IP name must be a DNS name and not a dotted-decimal IP address. The value must contain more than one qualifier such as "foo.com" and not a single qualifier, such as "foo."
Information | Value |
---|---|
Data type | String |
Default | None |
Port
Specifies the port on which the location service daemon listens for Remote Method Invocation and Internet Inter-ORB (RMI/IIOP) requests.
Because the system reserves port numbers less than 1024 for Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) applications, the recommendation is to use port numbers greater than 1023. However, the port range starts at 1.
Information | Value |
---|---|
Data type | Integer |
Default | None |
Range | 1 to 65535 |
SSL port
Specifies the port on which the location service daemon listens for encrypted Remote Method Invocation and Internet Inter-ORB (RMI/IIOP) requests.
Because the system reserves port numbers less than 1024 for Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) applications, the recommendation is to use port numbers greater than 1023. However, the port range starts at 0. A value of 0 disables the SSL port.
Information | Value |
---|---|
Data type | Integer |
Default | None |
Range | 0 to 65535 |
SSL settings
Specifies a predefined list of Secure Sockets Layer settings for connections.
These settings are System SSL repertoires that you configured on the SSL repertoire panel. Select one repertoire from the list.
