HCL VersionVault network planning and administration
HCL VersionVault server processes
HCL VersionVault is a distributed application. Many of its operations involve several host computers and several server processes on each host.
vobrpc_server process
Each VOB server host runs one or more vobrpc_server processes for each of its VOBs.

vobrpc_server process

Each VOB server host runs one or more vobrpc_server processes for each of its VOBs.

Each vobrpc_server process handles requests from view_server processes throughout the network. These requests can generate both metadata (VOB database) and file-system data (storage pool) activity. The vobrpc_server process accesses the VOB database in the same way as a db_server; it forwards storage pool access requests to the vob_server.

The vobrpc_server processes are started by the albd_server process, which also routes new requests to the least-busy servers and terminates unneeded vobrpc_server processes when the system is lightly loaded.
