MS SQL Server DataServer configuration and administration
Table 3–9: MS SQL Server DataServer broker properties (2 of 4)
Property category or property Description
Auto start Starts the DataServer automatically when the
AdminServer starts. The Auto start check
box is cleared by default.
Owner Information
Group name (UNIX only) The name of the group.
Username Your user name. The default is blank.
Password Your password. The default is blank.
Controlling NameServer
Register with NameServer A checkbox that indicates whether to register
the DataServer with a controlling
NameServer.
Controlling NameServer Identifies the NameServer that the DataServer
uses to find a broker that supports the correct
application services. (If you did not select to
register the DataServer with a NameServer,
the field is dimmed and unavailable.)
Registration mode How the broker specifies its hostname when
registering with its controlling NameServer.
This hostname information is passed onto a
client application when it attempts to connect
to a Data Service that the broker supports. The
choices are:
• Register IP — (Default) This setting is
the most efficient mechanism, and can
be used in most cases. It registers with
the IP address of the machine where the
broker is located.
• Register-LocalHost — The broker
registers with the hostname of the
machine that it runs on. Use this setting
when the broker runs on a machine with
a single hostname and more than one IP
address.
• Register-HostName — The broker
registers with the values specified in the
hostName property. Use this setting
when your clients need a fully qualified
host name to connect to a broker in a
different DNS domain.
Registration host name (UNIX only) The name of the group.
