For these systems, examples, syntax descriptions, function definitions, and literal strings that appear in text must be typed exactly as shown. Commands typed to the RTR CLI are not case sensitive unless enclosed in quote marks # A number sign ( # ) is the default operating system superuser prompt. % A percent sign ( % ) is the default oper

1 Introduction For a general introduction to Reliable Transaction Router, Version 3.2 (RTR), you should read the introductory chapter in the Reliable Transaction Router Application Design Guide. Additional information about the Reliable Transaction Router is available in the Reliable Transaction Router Application Programmer’s Reference Manual. In order to use RTR, you must install the RTR software and your application. See the Reliable Transaction Router Installation Guide for instructions for

Introduction 1.2 Entering Commands or, when several commands are to be entered at the RTR prompt: % rtr RTR> start rtr RTR> create journal Note For convenience, the user prompt for the operating system is shown here as the ‘‘%’’ symbol. Your system may have a different prompt. The RTR CLI accepts commands that you type and can process procedures consisting of RTR commands. Most RTR commands accept qualifiers: these are indicated by the forward slash (/) character. For example, many RTR commands a

Introduction 1.3 Online Help where error-identification is the identification part of the returned error. The following sequence returns an error message, RTRALRSTA, that can then be explained by the help errors rtralrsta command option: % rtr RTR> start rtr %RTR-F-RTRALRSTA, rtr already started RTR> help errors rtralrsta Errors RTRALRSTA RTR already started Explanation: RTR was already running when the "START RTR" command was executed. This error message is displayed by the RTR utility. RTR> 1.4

Introduction 1.5 Remote Commands This command starts RTR on the three nodes. Note The /CLUSTER and /NOCLUSTER command qualifiers refer to cluster support. These qualifiers are for operating systems that fully support clustering. Use of the /CLUSTER qualifier on systems that do not have clustering causes the relevant command to be executed on the local node only. For example Windows 95 systems do not support clustering. If several commands need to be executed remotely on the same nodes then the set

2 Starting and Setting Up RTR This chapter describes how to configure and start an RTR environment. Recovery journals, router load balancing and call-out servers are also discussed. 2.1 Introduction Before RTR applications can run, RTR must be started and the application’s facility must be defined on each node of the application’s environment. This is done by issuing the start rtr and create facility commands on each participating node. There are several ways to accomplish this: • You can log on t
