HOST_SELECTION - UEM Manager configuration option
- Stonebranch (Deactivated)
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.
