Thank you for the explanation. Your response is another example of the first rate help and education that this list provides - from detailed computer theory to the more mundane, it is one of the finest sources for help. It would appear that a compilation and editing of many of the submissions would provide the content for an introductory textbook for VistA users.
> The concept of HL7 ping was for one Vista client system to verify that a > remote Vista listener was up and configured properly on the node and > port defined on the client system. When the high level ping fails, the > client makes a call to DNS to see if the Vista listener has been moved > to another node. If DNS returns a list of nodes, each node is pinged in > sequence. If there is a successful connection on an alternate node, the > client's local database is updated with the new information. The key is > to have DNS contain all possible nodes that a listener could run on. > That way the listener can be moved to a different server when the > original one is taken out of service. > > > John Clemens > Mon-Fri, 0730-1600 phone 650.464.7585 (personal cell) -- Ismet B.
