Overview of Configuring Subscribers and Subscriptions
This section gives an overview of configuring subscribers and subscriptions for the SRC software.
Specifying the Activation Order for Subscriptions
You can specify the order in which the SAE activates subscriptions that are set up to activate on login for a particular subscriber. To specify the order, you define a precedence for the activation of each subscription. The SAE activates services in ascending order of precedence; if multiple services have the same precedence, the SAE activates them in an unspecified order.
You can configure the activation order by setting the
activation-order
option when you configure a subscription to a service with the SRC CLI. The enterprise manager portal automatically sets the activation order of some subscriptions to ensure they are activated before other subscriptions that depend on them.Inheritance of Properties and Subscriptions
Subordinate subscribers inherit properties and SAE subscriptions from their parent subscribers, unless you specify a different value for the subordinate. Properties that a subscriber can inherit include the maximum number of concurrent logins and the session timeout. For example, if you configure a subscription to a video service for an enterprise and configure a different subscription to the same video service for a site within that enterprise, the site uses its own subscription rather than the inherited subscription.
