ReportCenter uses the following CA NetMaster regions:
The ReportCenter control region and Java Task must be on the same system. If you are not using IBM's Type 4 JDBC Universal driver, the database must also be on the same system.
The simplest configuration is a single CA NetMaster region that acts as both the ReportCenter control region and the data region.
The ReportCenter control region is the CA NetMaster region that performs all ReportCenter external functions. These functions include servicing requests to view reports, issuing status and report generation requests to the ReportCenter Java Task, and accessing HFS files. This ReportCenter control region must be on the same system as the database.
The ReportCenter control region does not access the database directly; only the ReportCenter Java Task does. The control region requests and controls the database activity performed by the ReportCenter Java Task.
If your organization runs, for example, physically separate testing and production environments, with a database on each, then you require two ReportCenter control regions—one for the production environment and one for the testing environment.
ReportCenter uses only one set of HFS directories, accessed by the control region and the Java Task. The data regions do not access them.
A data region is a CA NetMaster region that collects and sends data to the ReportCenter Java Task. How and what data is collected depends on the products running in the region, and what data you choose to send.
Data collection regions can be on the same system as the ReportCenter control region or on a different system. Data regions do not need to link to each other or to the control region. A data region establishes a TCP/IP socket connection for sending data to the ReportCenter Java Task. When this connection is established, collected data is sent directly from the data region to the Java application.
The ReportCenter control region can and usually does function as a data region.
Important! If you have more than one data region on the same system, ensure that they are not collecting data for the same devices.
