Configuring the UBBCONFIG File to Start One or More Interface Repository Servers

For each application that uses one or more Interface Repositories, you must start one or more of the Interface Repository servers provided by Tuxedo CORBA. The server name is TMIFRSVR.You can add one or more entries for TMIFRSVR to the SERVERS section of the application's UBBCONFIG file.

By default, the TMIFRSVR server uses the Interface Repository file repository.ifr in the first pathname specified in the APPDIR environment variable. You can override this default setting by specifying the -f filename option on the command-line options (CLOPT) parameter.

The following example shows a SERVERS section from a sample UBBCONFIG file. Instead of using the default file repository.ifr in the default directory ($APPDIR) where the application resides, the example specifies an alternate file and location, /usr/repoman/myrepo.ifr.

Note: Other server entries are shown in the following sample to emphasize that the order in which servers are started for BEA Tuxedo CORBA applications is critical. A BEA Tuxedo CORBA application will not boot if the order is changed.

Notice that the TMIFRSVR Interface Repository server is the fifth server started.

For a description of the TMIFRSVR -f filename parameter, refer to the File Formats, Data Descriptions, MIBs, and System Processes Reference. In addition to the CLOPT -f filename parameter, the TMIFRSVR parameter can contain other parameters (those that are not specific to the BEA Tuxedo system) in the SERVERS section of an application's UBBCONFIG configuration file.
