To simplify the client/server configuration openUTM allows you to declare a default server using the statement DEST=.DEFAULT in the SVCU statement of the local configuration file (see "Creating the local configuration file").
If the call tpcall, tpacall or tpconnect use a service svcname2 to which there is no SVCU entry in the local configuration file, the following entry is used automatically:
SVCU svcname2, RSN=svcname2, TAC=scvname2, DEST=.DEFAULT, MODE=RR
In this case UPIC expects a suitable default server entry in the upicfile, i.e.
LN.DEFAULT localname SD.DEFAULT servername ND.DEFAULT servername
Furthermore you are allowed to call a service svcname2@BRANCH9 using DEST=BRANCH9 without entering a declaration in the local configuration file. In such a case the following entry is assumed:
SVCU svcname2, RSN=svcname2, TAC=scvname2, DEST=BRANCH9, MODE=RR
The partner, in this case BRANCH9, must be known to the carrier system. However, if the local configuration file contains an entry svcname2@BRANCH9, this entry takes precedence over the default server assumption.
