for ORACLE Guide
DataServer Modules
The DataServer for ORACLE can run in a variety of configurations. Some configurations involve a single process running on one machine. Others involve multiple processes running on different machines across multiple platforms.
To set up a DataServer configuration, determine which modules you need on which platforms. Then, set up the appropriate executables on those platforms. Table 3–1 lists the possible combinations and describes which executables you must set up on each machine. The term local indicates that a DataServer runs on the same machine as the client. Remote indicates that a DataServer runs on a different machine than the client.
NOTE: If you are using a DataServer on UNIX to access ORACLE on a platform where ORACLE does not support shared objects, you must build DataServer executables instead of using the default client, broker, and DataServer executables. See "Building DataServer Executables," for instructions.For instructions on setting up your DataServer configuration, see the section or sections that apply to the platform you are considering. For example, if you are configuring a local DataServer where all the Progress modules run on the same UNIX machine, see the "Configuring UNIX Modules" section. If you are building a remote DataServer configuration with a UNIX client accessing an NT host, see the "Configuring UNIX Modules" section for instructions on setting up the client and see the "Configuring NT Modules" section for instructions on setting up the host.
