Chapter 2. Setting up a Content Manager OnDemand instance 23
Figure 2-2   ARS.INI file sample
When you add an instance to an ARS.INI file, each instance must have a unique name. When 
you have more than one instance, you must identify the instance name when you are running 
Content Manager OnDemand programs (such as the ARSLOAD, ARSDB, and ARSSOCKD 
programs). 
Figure 2-3 shows an example of an additional instance in the ARS.INI file.
Figure 2-3   Additional instance
ARS.CFG 
When an instance is started, Content Manager OnDemand reads the ARS.INI file to 
determine the location of the server configuration file. Each instance must have its own 
ARS.CFG file that is determined by the SRVR_OD_CFG parameter in ARS.INI. 
When you configure the parameters, the default values are sufficient for most installations. 
However, you might need to adjust and tune the values to meet the requirements of your 
environment.

Note: Y ou must ensure that the ARS.INI file is consistent across all servers that are part of 
the Content Manager OnDemand system. If you update the ARS.INI file on the library 
server, you must update the ARS.INI files on the object server or servers if they are not on 
the same machines.
