To start multiple brokers for a database, you first start the primary broker with the startup parameters discussed previously.

Then, to start each additional secondary broker, you use a separate PROSERVE with the –m3 parameter.

The command to start each additional broker is:
proserve db-name -H host-name -S service-name -Mpb n -Ma n -Mi n -ServerType type -m3

Where:

-H host-name

The name or IP address of the host computer that contains the database. It is used for remote client connections.

-S service-name

The service name or port number to be used by a secondary broker.

-Mpb n

The maximum number of servers on a secondary broker.

-Ma n

The maximum number of remote clients per server on a secondary broker.

-Mi n

The minimum number of remote clients per server on a secondary broker.

-ServerType type

The type of server served by a secondary broker.

-m3

A secondary login broker.
