How a Server Exports Its Binding Information

As part of its initialization, the database server exports its binding information to a CDS server. Figure 8 illustrates the two steps a secure application must take to export its binding information:

1. The database server must contact the cell's Security server to acquire a ticket to CDS. Without this ticket, the database server has no effective way of proving its identity to the CDS server. Depending on the design of the database server, the interaction with the Security server may involve one or more RPC calls.
