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 to each node in turn and issue the commands interactively.
• You can log on to one node and use the remote command capability to
configure all the nodes from one session.
• You can include the necessary commands in a startup script or command file
on each node so the commands are automatically executed when the nodes
are booted.
The first two methods are more suited to a development or test environment, the
last method more suited to a production environment.
The remaining sections contain examples of the commands that are used to start
and configure RTR. Section 6.2 gives syntax details of the RTR commands.
2.2 Setting Up—An Example
The following example assumes that RTR is started on the eight node system
shown in Figure 2–1.
