This statement changes the host name in the distribution rule.
Scope of validity
SESDCN administration
Function
You use the MODIFY-DISTRIBUTION-RULE-ENTRY statement to change the host name in the distribution rule.
This can be necessary, for example, in the following case:
If the SESDCN restart is carried out on a computer other than the cold-start computer, the master DCN updates the distribution rules for all remote computers that have worked with it between the cold start and the abortion of the session and are accessible to it at the time of the restart. If not all these partners are accessible to the master DCN at the time of the restart, the system administrator must update some distribution rules manually and use the MODIFY-DISTRIBUTION-RULE-ENTRY statement to replace the host name.
