1 – INCOMING option
Specifies how a particular object responds to incoming connect requests directed to the alias node address. The alias node address is established using the SET EXECUTOR command. There are two options for ALIAS INCOMING: ENABLED Allows a specified object to receive incoming connect requests that have been directed to the alias node address. An object such as PHONE which uses a protocol that depends on multiple links should not be enabled for ALIAS INCOMING. By default, if an alias node identifier has been specified, ALIAS INCOMING is enabled for all objects except for PHONE. DISABLED Does not allow a specified object to receive incoming connect requests that have been directed to the alias node address. An object whose resources are not accessible clusterwide should not have ALIAS INCOMING disabled. If an attempt is made to connect to an object that does not have ALIAS INCOMING enabled, the status message NO SUCH OBJECT is returned.
2 – OUTGOING option
Specifies whether a particular object uses the alias node identifier specified in the SET EXECUTOR command in its outgoing connect requests and other protocols. Specify either of the following two options: ENABLED Allows a specified object to use the alias node address in its outgoing connect requests. An object such as PHONE which uses a protocol that depends on multiple links should not have the ALIAS OUTGOING parameter enabled. By default, only the object MAIL has ALIAS OUTGOING enabled. DISABLED Does not allow a specified object to use the alias node address in its outgoing connect requests.
