Using itconfigure with GUI: When creating a domain in expert mode (select File->New->Expert), the "Address Mode Policy for Object References" can be set to "Fully qualified hostname" on the "Domain Detail" screen. See the Orbix 6 Deployment Guide (Linked below), section "Creating a Domain in export Mode", for further details. Using itconfigure without GUI: The address-mode policy can be specified as a command line value to itconfigure using the option "-hostname Policy". See the Orbix 6 Deployment Guide (Linked below), "Running the Orbix Configuration Tool" for further details. Using a deployment descriptor: The address-mode policy can be manually added to the deployment descriptor node element, similar to the xml stanza below: <dd:nodes dns="acme.com"><dd:node name="mymachine" ip="1.1.1.1" profile="mymachine.acme.com"> <dd:policies> <dd:policy name="address_mode" value="long" /> </dd:policies> </dd:node> </dd:nodes>
It is recommended to create this the domain using itconfigure GUI and save the deployment descriptor on the "Create a Configuration Domain" screen. |
