What Is the BEA Tuxedo Workstation Component?

The Workstation component of the BEA Tuxedo system allows application clients to reside on a machine that does not have a full server-side installation, that is, a machine that does not support any administration or application servers. All communication between the client and the application servers takes place over the network.

A Workstation client process can run on a Windows or UNIX platform. The client has access to the ATMI. The networking behind requests is transparent to the user. A Workstation client does not have access to all the capabilities available to a native client. Both types of clients, however, can do the following:

Note: A Workstation client communicates with application servers through a Workstation Handler (WSH) process.

Limitations of Workstation Clients

Workstation clients do not have access to all the functionality available to native clients. For example, unlike a native client, a Workstation client cannot join an application as tpsysadm, which means that the client cannot subsequently subscribe to an event that issues a service call.
