3.3.1 Starting a Pool Server

A pool server must be invoked on each node on which you wish to provide server

redirection. The pool server does not need to be on the same node as its pooled servers.

A pool server may be invoked by using the appropriate start statement within the controller,

as an Oracle SQL/Services JDBC dispatcher or directly from the operating system

command line.

3.3.1.1 Starting a Pool Server from the Controller

A pool server may be started from the controller by referencing a thin pool server definition

in an XML-formatted configuration file. See Starting Servers

within Oracle JDBC for Rdb

Controller for more details.

Example

Given the following server section in the XML-formatted configuration file mycfg.xml :

<server

name="mypoolserver"

type="RdbThinSrvPool"

url="//localhost:1702/" >

</server>

the following command may be used to start this server from within the controller

rdbthincontrol> start server mypoolserver

Alternatively the controller may be used in command mode to start a server

$ java –jar rdbthincontrol.jar –cfg mycfg.xml –

–name mypoolserver –startserver

3.3.1.2 Starting a Pool Server from Oracle SQL/Services

A pool server may be started from the Oracle SQL/Services manager:

Using the Oracle SQL/Services manager, you must first establish a connection to the

SQL/Service server. Once connected you may then start a JDBC dispatcher.

Before you can start a JDBC dispatcher, you must first create its definition in the Oracle

SQL/Services environment.
