Installing Multiple Data Exchange MCP Service (MCP Agent)

You can install multiple DE MCP Services on the same MCP host. After installing the first DE MCP Service using SimpleInstall, perform the following steps:

Where * = a number between 1 and 9,

  1. On the CANDE window, enter the following commands:

    1. Copy *SYSTEM/DATAEXCHANGE/SERVICE AS *SYSTEM/DATAEXCHANGE/SERVICE*

    2. Copy *SYSTEM/DATAEXCHANGE/DMSIIADAPTER/DBINTERFACE AS *SYSTEM/DATAEXCHANGE/DMSIIADAPTER/DBINTERFACE*

    3. Copy *SYSTEM/DATAEXCHANGE/DMSIIADAPTER/STUB AS *SYSTEM/DATAEXCHANGE/DMSIIADAPTER/STUB*

    4. Copy *SYSTEM/DATAEXCHANGE/QINTERFACE AS *SYSTEM/DATAEXCHANGE/QINTERFACE*

    5. Copy *SYSTEM/DATAEXCHANGE/QINTERFACE/STUB AS *SYSTEM/DATAEXCHANGE/QINTERFACE/STUB*

    6. MODIFY *SYSTEM/DATAEXCHANGE/QINTERFACE/STUB*; LIBRARY LIBVARIABLE(FUNCTIONNAME=DATAEXCHQUEUE*)

    7. MODIFY *SYSTEM/DATAEXCHANGE/QINTERFACE*; LIBRARY DESERVICE(FUNCTIONNAME=DATAEXCHSERVICE*)

    8. MODIFY *SYSTEM/DATAEXCHANGE/DMSIIADAPTER/DBINTERFACE*; LIBRARY DESERVICE(FUNCTIONNAME=DATAEXCHSERVICE*);

  2. On the MARC window, enter the following commands:

    1. SL DATAEXCHSERVICE* = *SYSTEM/DATAEXCHANGE/SERVICE* ON DISK : TRUSTED,ONEONLY,LINKCLASS=1

    2. SL DATAEXCHQUEUE* = *SYSTEM/DATAEXCHANGE/QINTERFACE* ON DISK

  3. Create a new DSS for the second and subsequent DE MCP Services. At the ODT, type

    NA REG DELETE EP DATAEXCHSERVICE*;
NA REG DELETE DSS DATAEXCHSERVICE*;
NA REG DELETE PROV DATAEXCHSUPPORT*; 
NA REG ADD EP DATAEXCHSERVICE* filename = DATAEXCH_PORT*, 
	myname="8299", public = true;
NA REG ADD DSS DATAEXCHSERVICE* EP = DATAEXCHSERVICE*, class = other, 
	recover=true, init = true;
NA REG ADD PROV DATAEXCHSUPPORT* SL= DATAEXCHSERVICE*,task type = nmsl, 
	interface = message, DSS = DATAEXCHSERVICE*;

  4. Create a configuration file called *DATAEXCHANGE /CONFIG* for the new DE MCP Service. For example, * DATAEXCHANGE /CONFIG1 for DataExchService1, * DATAEXCHANGE /CONFIG2 for DataExchService2, and so on.

  5. Update the port number in the configuration file for the new DE MCP Service.

  6. In the corresponding Data Exchange Administration Site, Settings>System tab, type the appropriate port number for Agent TCP Port.
