DCE/RPC Remotability
The DMI 2.0 procedural interfaces are designed to be remotely
accessible through the use of RPC. HP-UX implemented these RPCs
using the Distributed Computing Environment (DCE/RPC).
Figure 7-1
DCE/RPC Remote Procedural Interface
RPC is based on a client/server architecture. The client side includes a
set of function calls which have interfaces with the same signatures as
the function calls they represent on the server. The calls interact with
the local RPC support to exchange the input parameters, the output
parameters and the return codes with the remote procedure located on
the server. A remote node acts as a client for procedural MI function
calls and acts as a server when receiving indications. The managed
node acts as a server for procedural MI function calls and acts as a
client when delivering indications to a remote node.
