If your Rational® Synergy
Server system is overloaded with too many user engine processes, you
might install the Engine component on a system to be used as an additional
engine server, as shown in this example.
Procedure
To install an engine as a custom installation,
complete the following steps:
- In the Select Features dialog box,
select only Engine. Clear all other check boxes,
and then click Next.
- In the Main Windows Server field,
type the name of your Rational Synergy
server, and then click Next.
- Select one of the following options:
- If the Rational Synergy Router Information dialog
box opens, go to step 4
- If the Ccm Server Information dialog
box opens, go to step 7.
- If the Informix Port Information dialog
box opens, the installation program has determined the router port
number from the main server computer. Go to step 6
- If the Start Copying Files dialog box
opens, the installation program has determined the router port number
from the main server computer, and has also determined the Informix port
number. Go to step 10
- If necessary,
type the router host name and the router port number in the appropriate
fields.
- By default, the port number that the Rational Synergy router uses is 5412. The
port number must be the same as the port number specified on the router
computer. By default, the router computer is the main server.
- Click Next,
and choose one of these options.
- If the Ccm Server Information dialog
box opens, go to step 7.
- If the Informix Port Information dialog
box opens, go to step 8.
- If the Start Copying Files dialog box
opens, the installation program has determined the Informix port
number. Go to step 10.
- You
can change the server port number with the Ccm Server Information dialog
box. The CCM server is a web server that serves Rational Synergy sessions. Rational Synergy requires a primary server,
which runs on the router host system. If the default server port number
(8400) is already in use, change the port number in the Server
port field. If you are not certain that port number 8400
is available, look in your Services file, which is located in the %windir%\System32\drivers\etc\services directory.
For more information, see Services file.
- Click Next to
display the Informix Information dialog box.
In the Informix Information dialog box, if the
default port number that Informix® uses
(1526) is already in use, type a different port number in the Informix
port field. If you are not certain that port number 1526
is available, look in your Services file, which is located in the %windir%\System32\drivers\etc\services directory.
For more information, see Services file.
- Click Next to display the Start
Copying Files dialog box.
- In the Start
Copying Files dialog box, scroll through the Current
Settings list to view your setup. If you must change any
settings, click Back until you arrive at the
dialog box where you need to make the change. After you make the change,
click Next until you return to the Start
Copying Files dialog box.
- Click Next.
A
progress indicator window presents the progress of the installation.
When the files have been loaded, the Installation
Program Wizard Complete dialog box opens.
- Click Finish.
Results
The Rational Synergy
engine installation is complete. You can run this computer as the
engine locally, or use it as an engine server for multiple users running Rational Synergy clients on
other computers.
