1.2.2 Service Contract Text File Output
If you want collected service contract discovery information logged to a file instead of directly to the metadata repository, you must use the TMMETADATA(5) -o<filename> option and then use tmloadrepos to manually load the file to the metadata repository. For more information, see tmloadrepos in the Oracle Tuxedo Command Reference Guide.
The output complies with the format imposed by tmloadrepos if a file is used as storage instead of the metadata repository. The file contains a service header section and a parameter section for each parameter. Service header contains items listed in the table below:
The "service" field format is <TuxedoServiceName>+'_'+<SequenceNo>. The suffix <SequenceNo> is used to avoid name conflict when multiple patterns are recognized for an Oracle Tuxedo service.
Note:
<SequenceNo> starts from the last <SequenceNo> number already stored in the metadata repository.
Service parameter contains information is listed in the following table:
