Connecting the Gateway to a Windows, or Solaris Data Object Broker

You can configure the Data Object Broker and the Gateway to reside on different domains and operating systems (z/OS, Windows, or Solaris). The Gateway must be in the same domain as the DB2 database system.

The following configuration tasks are required to access a Data Object Broker from a different operating environment than your Gateway:

1.	Configure the TCP/IP connection on z/OS

2.	Configure the TIBCO Object Service Broker TCP/IP environment

3.	Specify the number of Gateways connecting to the Data Object Broker

4.	Specify the gateway parameter

Sample Configuration

The following diagram shows a sample configuration:

 

Task A Configure the TCP/IP connection on z/OS

Prepare the TIBCO Object Service Broker relay file – RELAYCFG member in the CNTL data set. This file associates the TIBCO Object Service Broker communications identifier with the TCP/IP application addressing information.

Sample Relay File Assigned to DDNAME S6BRELAY

---

 

<relay xmlns="http://www.tibco.com/OSB/relayparms.xsd">

<tcpipparms tcbnum="3" maxtcbsockets="50" />

<directory>

<node name="OST01">

<tcpip host="123.23.123.9" port="12000" />

</node>

</directory>

</relay>

---

 

The element and attribute names in the relay file are case sensitive.

Task B Configure the TIBCO Object Service Broker TCP/IP environment

Add the following parameters for the TCP/IP connection to the Data Object Broker directory file, huron.dir:

 

name	This must be the same value as the node name set in the RELAY parameter file described in Task A, Configure the TCP/IP connection on z/OS.
host	The name of the host machine where the TIBCO Object Service Broker monitor process listens for connections.
port	The number of the TIBCO Object Service Broker monitor socket port.
ipckey	The value of the IPC key.

Task C Specify the number of Gateways connecting to the Data Object Broker

Specify the following value for the MAXDBMS parameter in the crparm file for your Data Object Broker.

 

MAXDBMS

This must be equal to or greater than the value specified in the SERVERS parameter in the startup JCL or HDB2SRVC SYSIN file.

Task D Specify the gateway parameter

Specify the following value for the TDS parameter in the HDB2SRVC statement in the startup JCL or HDB2SRVC SYSIN file. See Gateway Parameters for more details about specifying gateway parameters.

 

TDS	This must be the same value as the node name set in the relay file described in Task A, Configure the TCP/IP connection on z/OS.
