Configuring the engine startup daemon for UNIX

The engine startup daemon (ESD) is an alternative to rsh protocols. IBM® Rational® Synergy clients use ESD to start sessions when the Rational Synergy server is running inside a firewall and IBM Rational Change is running outside the firewall.

Procedure

  1. Ensure that ESD (ccm_esd) is running on any host that runs Rational Synergy sessions.

    For details, see the Starting and stopping the engine startup daemon (esd) topic in the IBM Rational Synergy information center.

  2. In the pt.cfg file, set the ENGINE_DAEMON option to true to cause Rational Synergy sessions to start using ESD.
