    PESIT Protocol Configuration

    To set up a PeSIT configuration, define the following entities:

    • a VFS
    • a Remote Actor with a User
    • a remote connection to a Remote PeSIT node
    • a Server template with PeSIT protocol

    In the Actors section, click the New button and create Partner PXFB01.
    Click the New User button and create User USR99:

    1755

    Go to the VFS tab and click the NEW button to define a VFS for Partner PXFB01:

    Go to Setup → STENG, Clusters & Servers and define a new PeSIT remote Server to connect to/be connected from.
    Click the NEW SERVER button and define connection parameters to the remote PeSIT Node XFB01:

    ParametersValue
    PROTOCOL TYPEPeSIT
    SERVER NAMEPXFB01_PROTOCOL
    DESCRIPTIONRemote Access Config Pesit x XFB01
    ENABLEDYes
    DMZ PROXY ENABLEDNo
    REMOTE HOSTIP of the remote Host
    REMOTE PORTPort of remote Host
    USERNAMEUsername to establish the connection
    REMOTE IDXFB-01
    LOCAL IDSPENTC12

    Warning!

    Do not set a password to connect to the XFB-01 remote PeSIT node. The parameters not mentioned can be omitted.


    Now define the PeSIT Server Template, with the following parameters:

    Server configuration:

    ParametersValue
    PROTOCOL TYPEPeSIT
    TEMPLATE NAMEPESIT01
    DESCRIPTIONPeSIT local server
    ENABLEDYes
    DEFAULT LISTENING PORT51600
    DIAGNOSTIC PORT 151601
    DIAGNOSTIC PORT 251602
    MAXIMUM PDU SIZE30000

    The PESIT server is now installed in the STENG folder. Note that if the path of this folder is longer than 52 characters, the PESIT server cannot be run, and an error appears in the
    messages.log.
    To solve this issue, you must create a Symbolic Link (SymLink) and edit the server.env file as shown in the example here below:
    Steng folder = /home/user1/installation/ghibli-home/wlp/usr/servers/steng

    Information available in the server.env installation file:
    KEYMXMS=PRIMPESI-AA7BB8O483
    OSIVERS=3.6B.01
    OSIROOT=/home/user1/installation/ghibli-home/wlp/usr/servers/steng/pesit/SPRun/pesit

    Create the SymLink:
    Go toln -s /home/user1/installation/ghibli-home/wlp/usr/servers/steng /home/user1/PesitDeploy

    and modify the server.env file:
    KEYMXMS=PRIMPESI-AA7BB8O483
    OSIVERS=3.6B.01
    PESIT_DEPLOY_DIR==/home/user1/PesitDeploy
    OSIROOT=/home/user1/PesitDeploy/pesit/SPRun/pesit

    Incoming call:

    ParametersValue
    NAMEIc_pesit01
    DESCRIPTIONIncoming call x XFB-01
    INCOMING ADDRESS0.0.0.0
    ACTORPXFB01

    Allocate the Server Template to a cluster.

    Warning!

    Use 0.0.0.0 as IP for local PeSIT to expose the right listening server port.

    The configuration is now completed.
