The Broker is a component of an application. The Broker is designed to automatically start each time the host on which it is installed is started.

You can use the brcontrol utility to view the list of registered programs.

To view the contents of the Broker from a command prompt, use the following command:

         
            BASEDIR/smarts
         /bin/brcontrol [-b <host>:<port>]

If the Broker resides on another system, specify the -b option with the host and port number.
