Name Server Registration Management

The General Communications Facility is enhanced to improve the reliability, performance, and ease of use of your Ingres system. The Name Server registration mechanism no longer erroneously de-registers servers nor requires you to recycle the installation to recover servers. These problems occasionally occurred under heavy DBMS connectivity loads.

The enhancement also solves the problem with manually registering servers. Now when the iinamu utility is used to manually register a server, all necessary information is restored, clients are correctly validated, and attempts to connect with an installation password are not rejected.

As a result of this enhancement, the output of the SHOW SERVERS command in the iinamu utility is now identical in format to other SHOW class commands.
