Run the client to connect to Symphony 5.0

  • Your cluster must be a Symphony 5.0 grid.

  • A service that works with your client must be deployed in the cluster and a corresponding application registered and enabled.

  • Your client application must connect to the cluster with the same application name as in the registered application.

The following are instructions for running your client from your development machine. It is assumed the Symphony 5.0 SDK is installed in the /opt directory.

To run your client on a machine that does not have the Symphony 5.0 SDK installed, download and install the Symphony client package and follow the instructions in install_client_unix_sym.pdf.

  1. Configure SOAM_HOME in cshrc.symclient or profile.symclient to the directory in which you have installed the Symphony SDK.
    • For csh, edit cshrc.symclient and change the following line to the directory in which you installed the Symphony SDK:

      setenv SOAM_HOME $SOAM_HOME

      to:

      setenv SOAM_HOME /opt/symphonySDK/SDK50

    • For bash, edit profile.symclient and change the following line to the directory in which you installed the Symphony SDK:

      SOAM_HOME=$SOAM_HOME

      to:

      SOAM_HOME=/opt/symphonySDK/SDK50
  2. Configure the EGO_MASTER_LIST, and EGO_KD_PORT parameters in $SOAM_HOME/conf/ego.conf to connect to the remote Symphony cluster.
  3. Set the environment to connect to the cluster.
    • For csh, enter

      source cshrc.symclient
    • For bash, enter

      . profile.symclient
  4. Run the client application.
