Listener Control

A given ES for .NET listener process is displayed on this page when it has registered itself with one or more of the database instances configured on the page. A listener will register itself with a database instance the first time it successfully connects to a region that uses that database instance.

To add or remove database instances for the page:

1. Click Database Instances.

   This opens the Database Instances dialog box.

2. Type the name of the database instance to use.
3. Click Select.

Instances will appear in the navigation tree on the Listener Control page. Under each instance a list of known Listener Processes will appear when that instance is expanded.

Selecting a listener process will display its URL, host, and process ID. Expanding it will display the regions for which the listener has channels.

To temporarily add a region to a listener process:

1. Click + Add Region.

   This opens the New Region dialog box.

2. In the Name field, type the name of the region.
3. In the Database Server field, type database server instance where you want your region database to be created.
4. Click Save.

Expanding a region under a listener process will display the current channels.

To temporarily add a channel:

1. Click * New Channel.

   This opens the New Channel dialog box.

2. In the Name field, type the name of the channel.
3. In the Protocol field, click the required protocol.
4. In the Port field, type the port number the channel will listen on.
5. Alternatively, expand the Advanced properties and specify as required.
6. Click Save.

Selecting a channel will display its properties. You can also edit, disable, enable, or delete the channel.
