Configuring distributed DataServer applications using the Unified Broker Framework
The Unified Broker Framework is a system administration framework that provides a consistent interface in which specific OpenEdge products such as the DataServer for ODBC can be managed. It supports elements that allow you to perform such common administrative tasks as:
Starting and stopping processes
Managing, configuring, and validating property files
These elements include the OpenEdge Explorer and Progress Explorer configuration tool, mergeprop utility, and command-line utilities.
The framework also facilities activities that are fundamental to the ODBC DataServer's broker-based technology. For example, the AdminService, the framework's central element, enables supported products like the DataServer for ODBC in managing an application's resources.
For details about the Unified Broker Framework, its elements, and the OpenEdge products that employ its features, see OpenEdge Getting Started: Installation and Configuration.
