The RPC Broker consists of a single global that stores the RPC BROKER SITE PARAMETERS file:
File # File Name Global Location
8994.1 RPC BROKER SITE PARAMETERS ^XWB(8994,
This file is used to configure and adjust many characteristics of an RPC Broker installation at a site.
The RPC BROKER SITE PARAMETERS file (#8994.1) includes fields that can be used to better manage the Broker Listeners and ports. For example, the LISTENER field is a multiple that should contain all the Listeners that you're planning to run on your system. A simple change of the STATUS subfield from STOPPED to START will start that particular Listener. Conversely, you can STOP a RUNNING Listener as well. Also, this file is used in conjunction with the XWB LISTENER STARTER option that can be used to automatically start up a Broker Listener.
If you are an MSM 4.3.0 site or later and using MSERVER instead of the Broker Listener, the current functionality (i.e., provided by this file) is not applicable to your site.
Access to the BOX-VOLUME PAIR (#.01) subfield of the LISTENER (#7) field in the RPC BROKER SITE PARAMETERS file (#8994.1) is limited. The reason for this is to prevent sites adding inappropriate entries in this field by way of casual editing through FileMan. The appropriate entries are all the BOX-VOLUME pairs that can read and write to the ^XWB global (i.e., where the RPC BROKER SITE PARAMETERS file resides). However, when editing this pointer-type field, you may see other BOX-VOLUME combinations that are in your TASKMAN SITE PARAMETER file (#14.7). Jobs running in those other BOX-VOLUME combinations cannot reach the ^XWB global, and thus, those BOX-VOLUME combinations would not be appropriate.
In order to edit the BOX-VOLUME pairs, you need to set the XWBCHK variable to the string "ALLOW" at the programmer prompt prior to invoking FileMan. For example:
>S XWBCHK="ALLOW" D Q^DI
