dsedit
(if your system is running X-Windows) or
dscp
(a
command line utility) to add entries to an interfaces file. To add these
entries, you must know the following information:
• Historical Server name.
• Monitor Server and Adaptive Server names that you want
Historical Server to connect to.
• Port numbers or network addresses assigned to these servers
when they were configured. To research this information, use
dsedit
or
dscp
on the machine where a server was configured to
examine the appropriate interfaces file.
If you are relying on a directory service for making client/server
connections, make sure that the libtcl.cfg file on all Historical Server client
machines points to the appropriate directory service. Use a text editor to
check and update libtcl.cfg files.
