Dissociating a Clearinghouse from Its Host Server System

Whenever a CDS server starts, one of the tasks the server software performs is to start its clearinghouse (or clearinghouses). The server performs this task automatically by examining a list of the clearinghouses that are resident on the system. Before you relocate a clearinghouse, use the dcecp program's clearinghouse disable command to update the clearinghouse files and ensure that the files are consistent before you copy them to the target server.

The clearinghouse disable command also removes, from the source server's internal memory, knowledge of the clearinghouse that you specify. This ensures that the relocated clearinghouse is not automatically started at the source server during server restarts.

To use the clearinghouse disable command, you must have write permission to the server on which the clearinghouse resides.

The following example command removes knowledge of clearinghouse /.:/Chicago2_CH from the memory of its host server:

dcecp> clearinghouse disable /.:/Chicago2_CH
dcecp>
