Usage considerations
Review the following information before using this automation control point:
- The value of the uid variable is the utility ID for the primary (when XSUTGLOB is called from the primary) or the utility ID of the server (when XSUTGLOB is called from the server). This value might be different for the primary than for the server. To reduce confusion, BMC suggests that you use the _cdbvar ('UID') function instead of reading the uid variable. For more information about the _cdbvar function, see _cdbvar-function.
- You cannot set the values of global-global variables from the XSUTGLOB automation control point.
