About the Sapphire/Gateway

The Sapphire/Gateway runs as a daemon (background process) that accepts client requests across the network and dispatches those requests to the appropriate database server. The Gateway daemon also forwards the database server's reply back to the client application. There must be a Gateway daemon running on the network for Sapphire/Web to communicate with any database when developing a project. An operating Gateway is not required to run a Sapphire project, although it can be very useful.

To start the Gateway daemon, type:

$SAPPHIRE/bin/dborbd.sh &
To terminate the Gateway daemon, use the ps command (as explained earlier) to determine the process ID of dborbd, and use kill -HUP or kill -2 to terminate the process. See your system administrator if you require assistance.
