Parameters
For command routing and server-to-server event logging functions, the server name you specify here should match the name that was set using the SET SERVERNAME command at the target server.
If this parameter is included, you must also issue the SET SERVERNAME, SET SERVERPASSWORD, SET SERVERHLADDRESS, SET CROSSDEFINE, and SET SERVERLLADDRESS commands. The default is NO.
Possible values are:
Examples
Task 1
A target server has a high-level address of 9.116.2.67 and a low-level address of 1570. Define that target server to the source server, name it SERVER2, set the password to SECRET, and specify that objects remain on the target server for 7 days after they have been marked for deletion.
define server server2 password=secret hladdress=9.115.3.45 lladdress=1570 delgraceperiod=7
Task 2
Define a server to enable it to receive commands routed from other servers. Name the server WEST_COMPLEX, set the password to CACTUS, and set the high-level address to 9.283.299, the low-level address to 1500, and the URL address to http://west_complex:1580/.
define server west_complex serverpassword=cactus hladdress=9.283.299 lladdress=1500 url=http://west_complex:1580/
Task 3
Use cross definition to define SERVER_A and SERVER_B.
set servername server_b set serverpassword mylife set serverhladdress 9.115.20.80 set serverlladdress 1860 set crossdefine on
set servername server_a set serverpassword yourlife set serverhladdress 9.115.20.97 set serverlladdress 1500
define server server_b hladdress=9.115.20.80 lladdress=1860 serverpassword=mylife crossdefine=yes
