Starting ProBroker distributed DataServer broker with TLS-enabled Progress Networking
The schema holder can run on the client or can optionally be located on any other host that is accessible on your network.The network can be configured to use a TLS or a non-TLS connection irrespective of remote or local DataServer configuration.The schema holder can also be established using TLS network protocol by using “-ssl” command line parameter as shown in the following example:
_mprosrv -S service-name -ssl
The dataServer client should also be instantiated with the “-ssl” parameter if
you also wish to establish a DataServer broker connection over a TLS enabled Progress
networking, as
follows:
prowin32 -1 SHDB -S 12345 -ssl
db my_dsn -ld ldb -dt MSS -U mb -P mb -S ccall7sv1 -sslNote: The following TLS connections are established using the above instruction:
- Schema holder DB and Progress Client
- OE DataServer Client and DataServer Server
The following instructions use default executable names. If you built custom executables, substitute those names. When creating a schema holder, the startup syntax is the same whether you are running a local DataServer or using MS SQL Server Networking.
