The Jolt Server is a listener that supports one or more handlers.

Jolt Server Listener (JSL) —the JSL is configured to support clients on an IP/port combination. The JSL works with the Jolt Server Handler (JSH) to provide client connectivity to the back-end of the Oracle Jolt system. The JSL runs as an Oracle Tuxedo server.

Jolt Server Handler (JSH) —the JSH is a program that runs on an Oracle Tuxedo server machine to provide a network connection point for remote clients. The JSH works with the JSL to provide client connectivity residing on the back-end of the Oracle Jolt system. More than one JSH can be available to the JSL, up to 32,767. (Refer to the description of the -M command-line option in “JSL Command-line Options” for additional information.)

System Administrator Responsibilities—the system administrator’s responsibilities for the server components of Oracle Jolt include:

• Determining the JSL network address.
• Determining the number of Jolt clients to be serviced. (The number of clients to be serviced is limited by MAXWSCLIENTS in UBB.)
• Determining the minimum and maximum number of JSHs.
