Using automatic receive

An automatic receive is an operation you start at the source database as part of the generate operation. Use automatic receive for generate, transfer, and receive operations using a single operation from the command-line interface.

When you perform a generate operation with an automatic receive, DCM uses the ccm_receive command to start the receive operation on the destination machine. This command starts a session, passes the arguments to the DCM receive operation, and then stops the session.

DCM performs automatic receives as the CM administrator user (on UNIX platforms this is always ccm_root). The engine process performs the receive operation, and the engine process runs as the CM administrator user. Moreover, the CM administrator user has the ccm_admin role; this role is required to change any non-modifiable objects when DCM loads the data.

Before selecting an Automatic Receive option in a destination database definition, be sure to read the topics that apply to the platforms you are using.
