Defining a Network Connection to the Service

How to:

First, a connection to communicate to the new RARG_SVC service on the repository server must be defined. Resource Management uses this connection when writing the monitor information to the relational tables. The connection definition is required for all Resource Management configurations because the monitor process on all servers uses direct passthru to communicate with the new service. The new service then communicates with the relational database defined by the SET SERVER command in the RARG_SVC service's connection pooling profile created when you configured the service on the repository server.
