Summary
How to configure host address published in object reference.
Setting "vbroker.se.iiop_tp.proxyHost".
Changing the IORs host.
Directing clients to different server-host.
Environment
VisiBroker
All supported platforms
Question/Problem Description
By default, object references (For example, IORs) published by VisiBroker, CORBA objects contain the address of the machine on which the CORBA server process is running. Clients can then use the published object references to connect directly to the server machine.
In certain circumstances, a server application may wish to include the address of a different machine. For example, a server application may wish to direct clients to a remote, load balancing machine.
VisiBroker provides a means to achieve this.
Resolution
The VisiBroker configuration variable "vbroker.se.iiop_tp.proxyHost" allows users to specify which host address to publish in their servers' object references.
The property specifies the proxy host name that can be used by the server engine. The default value is null, which uses the host name from the system. Host names or IP addresses are acceptable values.
