Alfabet Server
- Many tasks like the execution of job schedules and ADIF jobs as well as sending emails are now exclusively managed via event queueing. Multiple Alfabet Server s can be run in parallel to execute events in the ALFA_EVENT_BUS database table. Each Alfabet Server should be started with a different server alias. If you start an Alfabet Server application and another Alfabet Server is already running with the same server alias on the same host (either as a service or as an application), a pop-up warning provides information about the already available running server.
You can read the availability of Alfabet Server s from the ALFA_APPSERVER_RUNTIME database table. When an Alfabet Server connects to the Alfabet database, a new line is added to this table containing the information about the Alfabet Server:
- ID: The ID provides information about the Alfabet Server. It starts with Poll , followed by the host name of the server host, followed by either AlfaService for server services or AlfaServer for server applications, followed by the server alias name and a number.
- STATE: The state is running if the Alfabet Server is active and STOPPED after shutdown/stop of the Alfabet Server (service).
- POLLING_TIME: The time when the Alfabet Server was registered in the ALFA_APPSERVER_RUNTIME database table.
