Description

The HOST_SELECTION option specifies which host in the REMOTE_HOST list the UEM Manager will choose to begin its attempts to connect to a remote Universal Broker.

Regardless of how the first host is selected, UEM Manager processes the list sequentially until either a connection to a remote Universal Broker succeeds or all hosts in the list have been tried.

HOST_SELECTION is ignored if only one host is specified in the REMOTE_HOST list of hosts.

Values

option specifies how UEM Manager will select the first entry within a list of hosts specified by the REMOTE_HOST option.

Valid values for option are:

sequential
UCMD Manager will select the first host in the list, and then proceed through the hosts in the order in which they appear within the list.
random
UEM Manager will select any host in the list, in no particular order.

Note

Attempts to connect to a remote Universal Broker begin with this randomly-selected host, and then proceed in a sequential manner, wrapping around the list (if necessary) until the first host selected is reached again.

Default is sequential.
