Example: Multiple Servers Using Default Multicast Port for Peer Discovery
-- start a server using default mcast-port (10334) for
discovery,
-- with current directory as the working directory, and
network server
–- running on default localhost:1527
sqlf server start
–- start a second server talking to the first with dir2 as
working directory;
–- network server is started explicitly on localhost:1528
sqlf server start -dir=dir2 -client-port=1528
–- start another server talking to the first two with dir3
as working
–- directory; network server is disabled explicitly
sqlf server start -dir=dir3 -run-netserver=false
–- check from the SQLFire command shell
sqlf
sqlf> connect client 'localhost:1527';
sqlf> select ID from sys.members;
–- output will show three members in the distributed system
–- stop everything
sqlf> quit;
sqlf server stop -dir=dir3
sqlf server stop -dir=dir2
sqlf server stop
Example: Servers and Client Using Locator
–- start a locator for peer discovery on port 3241
-- listening on all addresses
sqlf locator start -peer-discovery-port=3241
–- start three servers as before using different client ports
-- and using the above started locator
sqlf server start -dir=dir1 -locators=localhost:3241
-client-port=1528
sqlf server start -dir=dir2 -locators=localhost:3241
-client-port=1529
sqlf server start -dir=dir3 -locators=localhost:3241
-client-port=1530
–- check from the SQLFire command shell
–- connect using the locator's client-port (default 1527)
-- for load balanced connection to one of the servers
-- transparently and for reliable failover in case the
-- server goes down
sqlf
sqlf> connect client 'localhost:1527';
sqlf> select ID, KIND from sys.members;
–- output will show four members with three as data stores
-- and one as locator
–- stop everything
sqlf> quit;
sqlf server stop -dir=dir3
sqlf server stop -dir=dir2
sqlf server stop -dir=dir1
sqlf locator stop
