SINGLE SERVER ACCESS IN A MULTIPLE TCP/IP INSTANCE ENVIRONMENT
First Claim
1. A system for accessing a single server application executing on a processing system having multiple TCP/IP instances comprising:
- a processor;
a registration repository containing information sufficient to identify to both the single server application and a client application seeking to access the single server application, one of the multiple TCP/IP instances through which the single server application may be accessed by client applications and wherein the registration repository is accessible by the multiple TCP/IP instances and the single server application; and
a utility which executes on the processor and provides means for accessing the registration repository to select a TCP/IP instance for connection to the server application.

Abstract
Methods, systems and computer program products are provided that access a single server application executing on a processing system having multiple TCP/IP instances. The single server application may be accessed by establishing a registration repository containing information sufficient to identify to both the single server application and a client application seeking to access the single server application, one of the multiple TCP/IP instances through which the single server application may be accessed by client applications. In such a case, the registration repository is accessible by the multiple TCP/IP instances and the single server application.
