Overview

The UCMD Server is responsible for:

1. Accepting a request from a UCMD Manager
2. Establishing network connections with the Manager
3. Creating another process to execute the Manager's command
4. Transmitting output and input files between the Server and Manager
5. Returning the command's exit code to the Manager

The Broker, at the Manager's request, starts the Server. The Server processes the request from the Manager and then exits. A new Server process is created for each Manager request. There may be zero or more Servers running simultaneously, processing requests from different Managers.

Server Environment

The UCMD Server for UNIX runs as a background process. It does not interact with a console.

All components dependent upon Universal Broker (such as UCMD Server) inherit the message language from the Universal Broker. All messages issued by components are sent to the Universal Broker for writing.
