Role of the Rendezvous Daemon

The Rendezvous daemon is a background process that supports all Rendezvous communications. Distributed processes depend on it for reliable and efficient network communication. All information that travels between processes passes through a Rendezvous daemon as it enters a host computer or exits a sending process.

The Rendezvous daemon:

•	Transmits outbound messages from program processes to the network.

•	Delivers inbound messages from the network to program processes.

•	Filters subject-addressed messages.

•	Shields programs from operating system idiosyncrasies, such as low-level sockets.

 

The Rendezvous daemon process, rvd, starts automatically when needed, runs continuously and may exit after a period of inactivity. For more information, see rvd on page 36 in TIBCO Rendezvous Administration.
