Verastream Integration Broker version 9.5.1 or higher
Summary
If you installed Verastream on Digital/Compaq Tru64 UNIX v5.0 or Sun Solaris and your Verastream license is for multiple processors, or if you installed Verastream on an IBM AIX platform (AIX 5L version 5.1 32-bit, or AIX 5L version 5.1 64-bit), you need to configure Verastream's processor usage.
Note: The information in this technical note supplements the information in the Verastream Integration Broker 9.5.1 or 9.6 Installation Guide, page 66.
Verastream Processor Licensing
In the Verastream /pardir directory, the license file (snlicens.txt) will indicate any multi-processor licensed limitations on the "CPU count" line. For example, the following sample line indicates the product is licensed to run on 4 processors:
CPU count - 4 CPU S70eFW bK97%L2frWmKpRSjg%EcLmConfiguring Processor Usage
To configure Verastream's processor usage, follow these steps:
- Solaris only: Use the psrinfo UNIX command to determine the current processor set.
To create a new processor set, assign processors to a set, or display assignments, use the psrset command and the following options:
| Psrset Options |
Function |
| -c |
Create a new processor set |
| -a |
Assign processors to the processor set |
| -i or -p |
Display assignments |
For example, the following commands define a processor set that is comprised of processors 1 and 3.
#psrset -ccreated processor set 1# psrset -a 1 1 3Notes:
- To display system processor information, use the psrinfo command. For further details on psrinfo, run "man psrinfo" or search for "psrinfo" on Sun's documentation page at http://docs.sun.com/app/docs.
- For further details on psrset, run "man psrset" or search for "psrset" on Sun's documentation page at http://docs.sun.com/app/docs.
- Create a file called snlicens.cfg in Verastream’s /pardir directory. NOTE: Do not confuse snlicens.cfg with snlicens.txt (the license file), which resides in the same directory.
- Add the line PROCESSOR_SET=<n> to snlicens.cfg, where <n> is a valid processor or processor set ID. For example:
PROCESSOR_SET=1Notes:
- PROCESSOR_SET accepts numerical values only (spaces also not allowed).
- AIX only allows processes, such as Verastream, to be bound to a single processor.
- Enter the following command to bind the Verastream daemon and all Verastream Universal Integration Engines to the processor or processor set you specified:
sntcpd --partitions
