14.1.3 Cell component—daemon<br />

<strong>WebSphere</strong> <strong>Application</strong> <strong>Server</strong> for z/OS introduces the location service daemon<br />

(LSD), a <strong>WebSphere</strong> cell component exclusive to the z/OS platform.<br />

A daemon, in <strong>WebSphere</strong> <strong>Application</strong> <strong>Server</strong> for z/OS terminology, is the<br />

Location Service Agent. It provides the location name service for external clients.<br />

There is one daemon per cell per z/OS image. If your cell consists of multiple<br />

z/OS images, a daemon will be created for each z/OS image where your cell<br />

exists. If there are two cells on the same z/OS image, two daemons will be<br />

created. See Figure 14-1.<br />

Figure 14-1 <strong>WebSphere</strong> <strong>Application</strong> <strong>Server</strong> for z/OS daemon usage in a cell<br />

Daemon servers are started automatically when the first server for the cell on<br />

that z/OS image is started (actually when the first control region is started). If you<br />

terminate a daemon, all the <strong>WebSphere</strong> <strong>Application</strong> <strong>Server</strong> components for the<br />

cell on that z/OS image come down.<br />

The daemon is created as part of the normal server customization process.<br />
