Node
After the domain configuration, the node gets configured. The following points describe a
node:
• It is a representation of a server running the PowerCenter Server software.
• It is a logical representation of a machine in a domain.
• The node takes the name of your machine.
• Only one node is possible per license.
• One node in the domain acts as a gateway to receive service requests from clients
and route them to the appropriate service and node.
• Services and processes run on nodes in a domain.
• Later in the topic, we will see that since we are installing server and client both on
same machine, domain and node will have the same name. If we install the server
and client on a different machine, they will pick different names.
