   Setting Up a BEA Tuxedo Application

To set the address of shared memory, set the IPCKEY parameter. This parameter is used by the BEA Tuxedo system to allocate application IPC resources such that they may be located easily by new processes joining the application. This key and its variations are used internally to allocate the bulletin board, message queues, and semaphores that must be available to new application processes. In single processor mode, this key names the bulletin board; in multiprocessor mode, this key names the message queue of the DBBL.

The IPCKEY parameter has the following characteristics:

• It is required.

• It is used to access the bulletin board and other IPC resources.

• Its value must be an integer in the range 32,769 to 262,144.

• No other application on the system may use this specific value for its IPCKEY. Its value must be unique among all applications.
