File Formats, Data Descriptions, MIBs, and System Processes Reference

DM_EXPORT Section

This section, also known as the DM_LOCAL_SERVICES section, provides information on the services exported by each local domain access point. If this section is absent, or is present but empty, all local domain access points defined in the DM_LOCAL section accept remote requests to all services advertised by the local BEA Tuxedo application. If this section is specified, it should be used to restrict the set of local services that can be requested from a remote domain.

A local service is a service made available to one or more remote domains through a local domain access point.

Entries within the DM_EXPORT section have the following form:

service [optional_parameters]

where service is the identifier name of a particular local service; it must be 15 characters or fewer in length. This name is advertised by one or more servers running within the local BEA Tuxedo application.

A local service made available to one or more remote domains inherits many of its properties from the SERVICES section of the TUXCONFIG file, or their defaults. Some of the properties that may be inherited are LOAD, PRIO, AUTOTRAN, ROUTING, BUFTYPE, and TRANTIME.

Optional parameters for the DM_EXPORT section

LACCESSPOINT (also known as LDOM) = identifier

Specifies the name of the local domain access point exporting this service. If this parameter is not specified, all local domain access points defined in the DM_LOCAL section accept remote requests to this local service.

ACL = identifier

Specifies the name of the access control list (ACL) to be used by the local domain access point to restrict requests made to this local service by remote domains. The name of the ACL is defined in the DM_ACCESS_CONTROL section.

CONV = {Y | N}

Specifies whether (Y) or not (N) this local service is a conversational service. The default is N.

RNAME = string[1..30]

Specifies an alternative identity, or "alias," for the name of this local service to the remote domains. This name will be used by the remote domains to request this service. If this parameter is not specified, the actual name of this local service name—the service identifier—is the name used by the remote domains to request this service.

Non-TDomain parameters for the DM_EXPORT section

The following DM_EXPORT section parameters do not apply to domain gateways of type TDOMAIN but are included here for completeness.

INBUFTYPE = string — applicable to domain gateways of type SNAX, OSITP, and OSITPX
OUTBUFTYPE = string — applicable to domain gateways of type SNAX, OSITP, and OSITPX
COUPLING = {TIGHT | LOOSE} — applicable to domain gateways of type OSITPX
INRECTYPE = string — applicable to domain gateways of type OSITPX
OUTRECTYPE = string — applicable to domain gateways of type OSITPX

For detailed descriptions of SNAX, OSITP, and OSITPX parameters, see BEA eLink Documentation .
