The CCM server is a web server. Every Rational® Synergy server installation needs
at least one CCM server. For better scalability, you can start additional
CCM servers, for example, if you have multiple Rational Synergy databases with many users.
One CCM server can manage multiple databases, but one database cannot
be managed by more than a single CCM server. One CCM server must be
designated to serve help.
The CCM server:
- Serves requests from Rational Synergy
sessions running in web mode.
- Serves online help pages for all Rational Synergy GUI sessions.
- Hosts patches for automatic deployment to Rational Synergy client installations.
A CCM server can run on any system on your network that is running
a server platform supported by Rational Synergy
7.1.
The CCM server starts back-end command interface sessions to process
user requests from Rational Synergy
Web-mode clients. It manages the back-end sessions, starting new ones
as needed, and shutting down old ones when they are no longer needed.
