Remote processes

The relevant Enterprise Server executables, such as bshell, database drivers, and audit server are equipped with an internal network layer. This network layer handles both local and remote communication.

The client process requests the network layer to initiate a process. Based on the given parameters, the network layer identifies that a remote process is required.

Remote configuration information might be required before the user can start the expected server process.

For example, if a remote database driver must be started, the remote tabledef ($BSE/lib/tabledef6.2) is first required to identify what type of db-driver the user must start. In that case, the file server must be running on the remote host.
