Cross-system Communication Methods

CA MIM address spaces running on multiple systems coordinate their efforts by communicating status information through a common control file. CA MIM allows you to choose from a number of control file architectures and storage mediums.

The type of CA MIM cross-system communication method best suited for your environment depends on several factors. Before proceeding, we recommend that you read the section Performance Considerations in this chapter for a better understanding of CA MIM control file internals and externals.
