What Are the Landmark Components?

A Landmark system contains several main components.

Landmark Servers

These servers are the components that start whenever you start the Landmark system, such as through startlaw. They include the Landmark Database Server, the Landmark Security Server, the Async (Batch) Server, the Online Help Server, and others. These servers run within the Grid service, which manages these as Grid applications.

You can start and stop each of these servers individually.

Landmark Services

The primary Landmark service is SSOPV2, which handles authentication for most Landmark services. Other Landmark applications will also be set up as Landmark services so that users can be authenticated for them as well.

Landmark Applications

Landmark applications include both those associated with the Environment, such as lsuserapp, and any Landmark applications you have installed. These applications are installed and deployed in the WebSphere application server.

Object Persistence Framework (OPF)

The Object Persistence Framework (OPF) enables the persistence of business objects at the database level. With the Object Persistence Framework Connector, it handles the interaction between the Landmark applications and the relational database.
