Purpose

Registers dispatcher, endpoint, and watchdog processes with Unity.

Syntax

PROCESS ADD process_id process_type region_name ;

Parameters

processid
Identifier assigned to a specific process.
process type
Represents one of the following values:
Process Type Description
endpoint One endpoint per region is automatically added during installation.
dispatcher Systems configured during setup have two dispatchers defined (HA). When adding new systems, two dispatchers per system must be added for HA environments.
watchdog Unity allows one watchdog per region. By default, Unity is installed with two regions in an HA environment, and each region has a watchdog defined. If more regions are added, add watchdogs to these regions. These additional watchdogs act as process monitors only and do not participate in determining/resolving sequencer HA status.
region_name
Unique character string that identifies a region managed by a Unity server.

Usage Considerations

You can use the REGION LIST command to view a list of current region names.

Including region_name which enables Unity to route queries based on its proximity to the Teradata Database system.

Example

unityadmin>  PROCESS ADD eptTest endpoint pluto; 
Successfully added process 'eptTest'.
