Configuring IBM eXtremeIO (XIO)
IBM® eXtremeIO (XIO) is a transport mechanism that replaces the Object Request Broker (ORB).
Before you begin
- If Version 8.6.0.2 is installed on your servers that are running XIO and you have COPY_TO_BYTES configured on the data grids, your WebSphere® eXtreme Scale Client installations must also be at Version 8.6.0.2 or later.
- To configure XIO, all of your catalog and container servers must be at the Version 8.6 release level. For more information, see Updating eXtreme Scale servers.
About this task
You can configure XIO for all the container servers in your catalog service domain by enabling XIO in the catalog servers. The container servers discover the transport type of the catalog server and use that transport type.
