Database Administration Installation Guide
If you use BMC_PORT to invoke another instance of the Database
Administration server, be sure to choose a different local directory for the
server files that the additional instance creates. Choosing a different
directory prevents conflicts between the server files of the two instances.
For example, when started by user
bmc, patroldb uses the BMC_LOCAL
directory for all of the files that are generated at runtime and owned by
user
bmc. To run an instance of informix, the user specifies a different
BMC_PORT value and another directory for BMC_LOCAL (such as
/usr/informix/jobs). That directory will contain all of the files that are
generated at runtime and owned by user
informix.
Example
export BMC_PORT=1413
Setting the BMC_SCHEDLOG and BMC_SERVERLOG Environment Variables
The BMC_SCHEDLOG and BMC_SERVERLOG environment variables
specify the paths to the scheduler log file and server log file. If the paths
are not fully-qualified, they are assumed to be relative to BMC_HOME.
If not set in the environment and the
-D option is specified on the
patroldb command line, the scheduler log information is sent to
BMCschedlog and the server log information is sent to BMCserverlog in
the BMC_LOCAL directory.
Example
export BMC_SCHEDLOG=/usr/bmc/PDBAdmin/hpux/3.0/jobs/mysch.log
export BMC_SERVERLOG=/usr/bmc/PDBAdmin/hpux/3.0/jobs/mysrv.log
Setting the BMC_JOBLOAD Environment Variable
The BMC_JOBLOAD variable allows you to specify the number of jobs
that can run simultaneously. The default value for BMC_JOBLOAD is
two jobs and the minimum allowed value is one job. The overall total
number of jobs or scheduled jobs running at any one time should not
exceed 1000 jobs. Release from hold or delete no more than 100 jobs or
scheduled jobs at a time.
