Eliminating NameServer using the ubroker properties file
You can also eliminate the NameServer by directly editing the ubroker.properties file, although using OpenEdge Management or OpenEdge Explorer is less error prone.
To eliminate the NameServer by editing the ubroker.properties file:
1. Open install-dir/properties/ubroker.properties in a text editor.
2. Find the broker definition for your Transaction Server. For example:
[UBroker.WS.wsbroker1]
Note that wsbroker1 is the name of the Transaction Server.
3. Add and set the following property:
registerNameServer=0
Or, if registerNameServer is already set to 1, reset it to 0.
4. Find the definition for your Messenger. For example, if you use CGIIP:
[WebSpeed.Messengers.CGIIP]
5. Add and set the following property:
registerNameServer=0
Or, if registerNameServer is already set to 1, reset it to 0.
6. Add and set the port number for your broker. For example, if you are using the default wsbroker1:
Port=3055
7. Save and close the ubroker.properties file.
Note: When you eliminate the NameServer, the Messenger can only access one WebSpeed Transaction Server (broker). One of the advantages of using the NameServer is that you can run multiple brokers.
