8.5.3.1 Creating an SHM Domain

To create an SHM domain, do the following:

  1. Refer to Domain UBBCONFIG Editor to enter the domain editor page.
  2. Fill out the *RESOURCES section.

    Note:

    • IPCKEY: This parameter is initialized to 33333 automatically for each new created domain.
    • DOMAINID: This parameter takes the last specified domain name by default.
    • MASTER: You can leave it blank since the value is initialized automatically when you add the first machine to the domain.
    • MODEL: Keep the default value, MP, to make dynamic machine deployment possible even if you are creating an SHM domain.

    Click More... to show more options.

  3. From the Machine List panel, add a machine to domain by clicking + beside the machine name.

    A popup dialog is displayed to collect machine related information.

    If it is the first time the machine is being added, the Application Home option must be specified. The Application Home is the root directory where all domains are deployed.

    The “Environment Path Variable” can also be specified when adding a machine. It is a colon (UNIX/Linux) or semi-colon (Windows) separated string that contains paths where the environment specific commands are searched for. For example, the compiler or Oracle DB client that could be used by user programs.

  4. Click OK.

    Another popup dialog which contains all UBBCONFIG file *MACHINES section parameters is displayed.

  5. Fill in any parameter specific to this Tuxedo machine. Click OK.

    After a domain is created, the following changes appear on the page:

    • All the required information for this machine is collected and one UBBCONFIG file entry is added to the *MACHINES section on the left side.
    • Several UBBCONFIG file entries are generated automatically in other sections as well.
    • An LMS server (used for monitoring data collection), is added to the *SERVERS section. It is a mandatory server to enable the machine to be monitored by EM.
    • A grroup named SYSGRP_<LMID> is added to include LMS server.
    • The *NETWORK section entry is also added automatically.
