Configuring server group properties is the same as configuring a secondary broker.

By default, every database configuration includes a default server group (the primary broker), which you configured when you added the database. To add a secondary broker, you just add a server group and set its properties.

The server group properties include the same startup parameters you learned earlier:

  • Service name or port number (–S)
  • Number of servers (per broker) (–Mpb)
  • Maximum clients per server (–Ma)
  • Minimum clients per server (–Mi)

Follow these steps to set server group properties:
