Local Execution (No Remote Tiers)
To use this example with no remote tiers (ie: as a standalone application):
- Execute the Tier Configurator VL_SAM134 and make sure that you have this tier configuration:
| System | Valid Connection Details Are Required | APPL Tier | DATA Tier | PRINT Tier | BATCH Tier |
| Default Client | No | System Itself | System Itself | System Itself | System Itself |
| Default iSeries | No | System Itself | System Itself | System Itself | System Itself |
- Close the Tier Configurator VL_SAM134.
- Now execute form VL_SAM151 and use the Update button to cause system variable *CENTRAL_TIME to be evaluated repeatedly. In this environment *CENTRAL_TIME is being sourced from the current DATA tier's system time (ie: the local workstations time).
