4. General Architectures
TMM (Tmax Manager).
TMM is a process to manage entire system. It manages system’s operational information, and, moreover, CLL, CLH, TMS, RQS and transaction handling server processes.
CLL (Client Listener)
CLL is a Listener process which manages connection between client and Tmax.
CLH (Client Handler)
CLH, which also refers as Client Manager, is a mediation process which mainly manages clients’ and servers’ transaction handling server processes.
TMS (Transaction Management Server)
Unlike system management processes like TMM, CLL, and CLH, TMS is a process to manage database and distributed transaction processes.
RQS (Reliable Queue Server).
RQS is the process to manage Disc Q of Tmax.
GW(Gateway)
In case of setting multi-domain system, GW is a process to manage interactions between domains.
TLM (Transaction Log Manager)
TLM, which was a part of TMM(version 4.0 or earlier), is a separated process to handle transaction logging.
HMS (Hybrid Messaging System)
HMS is the communication mediator to let connection between sender and receiver to be loosely coupled.

If application programs attempt to access certain datasets, which are registered in TACF, resource manage will limit their accesses to the datasets.
On the GW, terminal accesses from specified LU or IP address can be limited by
mapping
Users’ run authority can be controlled by either single transaction unit or group transaction unit of users.
