Generating and Modifying the Relay Server Configuration File

Generate all or part of a Relay Server configuration file. Then transfer the generated file to all Relay Server hosts.

Generating a configuration file extracts the property values stored in the cluster database during the configuration process, and writes them to a file. You may still need to edit this file after export.

  1. In the navigation pane, click the Unwired Server cluster name.
  2. In the administration pane, click the Relay Servers tab.
  3. Click Generate.
  4. Choose Relay server properties configuration file.
  5. Select the parts of the file to generate:
    • The entire Relay Server configuration
    • A server node definition
    • A farm definition
  6. Select an output target for the file.
  7. Click Finish.
  8. Manually edit the file if this is required, and save the changes.
    For example, Relay Server farms that use a load balancer will likely require further edits. Consider:
    • Updating the host name if the Relay Server needs to share the same name of the load balancer.
    • Adding Relay Servers to the farm for which the load balancer manages inbound requests.
    For details on other manual edits that you can perform, see the Relay Server documentation at http://infocenter.sybase.com/help/index.jsp?topic=/com.sybase.help.sqlanywhere.12.0.1/relayserver/relayserver12.html.
  9. If you need to configure a Relay Server farm, apply the same changes to the configurations of remaining farm members. The configuration among all members must be identical.

If you are deploying multiple Relay Servers in a farm with a third-party load balancer, all Relay Server Outbound Enablers must be configured to connect to the load balancer host name as well. When all Relay Servers and Outbound Enablers are configured, test the setup and ensure that connectivity from Unwired Server is possible.
