Can someone please explain to me how this works? Let's say I have physical Sun/Solaris box named B1.
On B1 I have three logical hosts, B2, B3, and B4. Each has an identical Remedy install, etc, with the exception of the install directory, host name, and ports. None use portmapper. The installation is a vanilla AR 7.1 + CMDB + IM + SLM install. Each has it's own remote database. All of these installs share RPC numbers for fast/list/escalation threads (etc...). The installer defines these in the /etc/rpc file like this: # Action Request System daemons arserverd 390600 arserverd arserverd 390601 arserverd arserverd 390604 arserverd arserverd 390619 arserverd arserverd 390620 arserverd ... What I am curious is this - if a request comes in for server B1 and B2 for the same RPC at the same time - what happens? Does it process the requests in order? Simultaneously? Does each server effectively have their own RPC called 390600? It would appear not since these are tied to the physical server and not the virtual servers. Or do the RPC #'s get tied to the ports so there is a unique combination?
