Active server initialization

Last Updated : Dec 09, 2021 |

The active server initialization is executed on the server or active server (duplicated).

The Watchdog process creates the Communication Manager application by starting up the Process Manager (prc_mgr). The Process Manager starts up the Communication Manager processes by:

  • Reading the Process Table file (/opt/defty/bin/Proc_tab.z)

  • Creating every process with the PM_INIT attribute

Other Communication Manager processes, such as initmap and hmm create other permanent Communication Manager processes.

The Process Manager also:

  • Verifies that Communication Manager is authorized to run on this server.

  • Maintains a heartbeat to the Watchdog.
