WMENT_LOGICAL_HOST
Logical host name of the cluster. This is the name that the startBroker.sh, stopBroker.sh, and brokerStatus.sh scripts will use while communicating with the webMethods Broker subsystem on the node.
WMENT_AWBROKER_SCRIPT
Absolute path to the directory where the startBroker.sh and stopBroker.sh scripts can find the Broker startup script, aw_broker82.
WMENT_HOME
Absolute path to where webMethods Broker is installed (for example, /opt/softwareag/Broker).
WMENT_CONFIG
Absolute path to the webMethods Broker monitor directory where the awbrokermon.cfg file resides (for example, /opt/softwareag/Broker/bin).
BROKERMON_PORTNO
The port number (for example, 6850) that the startBroker.sh script uses to communicate with the Broker Monitor.

If the cluster software has a probe retry capability, set this parameter to NO.
PROBE_MAX_RETRY
Number of attempts the brokerStatus.sh script makes before declaring Broker Server could not be started. The default value is 5.
If the cluster software has a probe retry capability, disable the webMethods Broker retry capability by setting PROBE_MAX_RETRY to 0.
PROBE_INTERVAL_SECS
Number of seconds the brokerStatus.sh script sleeps between probes. The default value is 60.
If the cluster software has a probe retry capability, disable the webMethods Broker retry capability by setting PROBE_INTERVAL_SECS to 0.
START_PROBE_MAX_RETRY
Number of attempts the startBroker.sh script makes before declaring that Broker Server could not be started. The default value is 5.
START_PROBE_INTERVAL_SECS
Number of seconds the startBroker.sh script sleeps between probes to check the start status of the Broker Server. The default value is 60.
SSL_CERTFILE
Absolute path to where the SSL certificates file resides.
SSL_PASSWORD

SSL_TRUSTFILE
Absolute path to where the trust store file resides.
SSL_NOENCRYPT
