servertool(1) Java IDL and RMI-IIOP Tools servertool(1)NAMEservertool - Provides an easy-to-use interface for developers to
register, unregister, start up, and shut down a persistent server.
SYNOPSISservertool-ORBInitialPort nameserverport [ options ] [ commands ]
options
The command-line options. See Options.
commands
The command-line commands. See Commands.
DESCRIPTION
The servertool command provides the command-line interface for
developers to register, unregister, start up, and shut down a
persistent server. Command-line commands let you obtain various
statistical information about the server. See Commands.
OPTIONS-ORBInitialHost nameserverhost
This options is required. It specifies the host machine on which
the name server runs and listens for incoming requests. The
nameserverhost value must specify the port on which the orb is
running and listening for requests. The value defaults to
localhost when this option is not specified. If orbd and
servertool are running on different machines, then you must
specify the name or IP address of the host on which orbd is
running.
Note: On Oracle Solaris, you must become a root user to start a
process on a port below 1024. Oracle recommends that you use a
port number above or equal to 1024 for the nameserverport value.
-Joption
Passes option to the Java Virtual Machine, where option is one
of the options described on the reference page for the Java
application launcher. For example, -J-Xms48m sets the startup
memory to 48 MB. See java(1).
COMMANDS
You can start the servertool command with or without a command-line
command.
· If you did not specify a command when you started servertool, then
the command-line tool displays the servertool prompt where you can
enter commands: servertool >.
· If you specify a command when you start servertool, then the Java IDL
Server Tool starts, executes the command, and exits.
register -server server-class-name -classpath classpath-to-server [ -applicationName application-name -args args-to-server -vmargs flags-for-JVM ]
Registers a new persistent server with the Object Request
Broker Daemon (ORBD). If the server is not already registered,
then it is registered and activated. This command causes an
installation method to be called in the main class of the
server identified by the -server option. The installation
method must be public static void install(org.omg.CORBA.ORB).
The install method is optional and lets developers provide
their own server installation behavior, such as creating a
database schema.
unregister -serverid server-id | -applicationName application-name
Unregisters a server from the ORBD with either its
server ID or its application name. This command causes
an uninstallation method to be called in the main class
of the server identified by the -server option. The
uninstall method must be public static void
uninstall(org.omg.CORBA.ORB). The uninstall method is
optional and lets developers provide their own server
uninstallation behavior, such as undoing the behavior
of the install method.
getserverid -applicationName application-name
Returns the server ID that corresponds to the
application-name value.
list
Lists information about all persistent servers
registered with the ORBD.
listappnames
Lists the application names for all servers currently
registered with the ORBD.
listactive
Lists information about all persistent servers that
were started by the ORBD and are currently running.
locate -serverid server-id | -applicationName application-name [ -endpointType endpointType ]
Locates the endpoints (ports) of a specific type
for all ORBs created by a registered server. If
a server is not already running, then it is
activated. If an endpointType value is not
specified, then the plain/non-protected endpoint
associated with each ORB in a server is
returned.
locateperorb -serverid server-id | -applicationName application-name [ -orbid ORB-name ]
Locates all the endpoints (ports)
registered by a specific Object Request
Broker (ORB) of registered server. If a
server is not already running, then it is
activated. If an orbid is not specified,
then the default value of "" is assigned
to the orbid. If any ORBs are created
with an orbid of empty string, then all
ports registered by it are returned.
orblist -serverid server-id |
-applicationName application-name
Lists the ORBId of the ORBs defined on a
server. An ORBId is the string name for
the ORB created by the server. If the
server is not already running, then it is
activated.
shutdown -serverid server-id |
-applicationName application-name
Shut down an active server that is
registered with ORBD. During execution of
this command, the shutdown method defined
in the class specified by either the
-serverid or -applicationName parameter
is also called to shut down the server
process.
startup -serverid server-id |
-applicationName application-name
Starts up or activate a server that is
registered with ORBD. If the server is
not running, then this command starts the
server. If the server is already running,
then an error message is displayed.
help
Lists all the commands available to the
server through the servertool command.
quit
Exits the servertool command.
