PURPOSE

To configure Background Processor Server for Metasolv application.

SOLUTION

Please follow below steps to configure Background Processor Server.

STEP 1.

It is recommended that you create a separate user in M6 for configuring background processor.Lets say BPADMIN is the user.

Multiple Backgound Processors can be created seeing the business requirement.

STEP 2.

Update the jmaster.ini file in the Metasolv client directory.

[DBMS_Profiles]
[Application Servers]
J2EEProfiles= 'TEST'

[J2EEProfile TEST]
url=http://M6_Application_Server_IP:Port
database=MetasolvDB SID

[PROFILE PURGEUTIL]
DBMS=O84
Database=Oracle
UserId=
DatabasePassword=
LogPassword=
ServerName=ServerName-->to be given
LogId=
Lock=
Prompt=1
DbParm=DisableBind=0
DelimitIdentifier='No'
CommitOnDisconnect='No?
AutoCommit=0

Note:Background Processor connects to application server IP as mentioned above in jmaster.ini. Background Processor uses JDBC connection using mslvNoneTxDataSource. While creating multiple background processors keep Maximum Capacity and Initial Capacity of the DataSource in consideration. Its recommended to have sufficient Initial Capacity of the DataSource.

STEP 3. 

Go to M6 client directory and run jmanager.exe.

STEP 5. 

Go to M6 client directory and in order to run Background Processor launch jmaster.exe.

Login with BPADMIN user created above. Here you go with running Background Processor server.

Note: Only one jmaster.exe will be running on one host.

STEP 6. 

In order to avoid STEPS 3-4 use below SQL( Not recommended).
