AE DB Client Copy

[GLOBAL]

helplib=

The name of the message file.

Helpcache=

The availability of the message and language-dependent strings.

Allowed values: "ALL" (default value), "NONE", "CONTROLS"

"ALL" = The entire message file is kept in the RAM.
"NONE" = The message file is always read from the hard drive.
"CONTROLS" = All the language-dependent strings that are required for displaying a dialog program are held in the RAM.

language=

The language that the login window suggests by default.

Allowed values: "E" (default), "D", "F"
"D" = German
"F" = French
"E" = English

The language that you select when you log on affects the utility's interface and the log-file messages. When you select several languages here, the first language is used as the default language.

docu_path=

The directory in which the help system is installed.

logging=

The path and the file name of the log file.

The characters are used as place holders for consecutive numbering. When the utility starts, the log files are renamed in order to ensure that the current log file always shows the number "00".

logcount=

The number of stored log files.

WorkTablePath=

The directory in which the worktable files are created.

DeadlockCnt=

The maximum number of deadlocks per operation.

cmd=

Command line call command to start the utility.

path=

The start path for the utility.

title=

This parameter is used internally within the utility. The value must not be changed.

The number of data records that should be deleted at once when clients are removed (only for MS SQL Server and Oracle databases). This parameter can improve the performance of the running system during the deletion process.

Default value: 0 (all data records are deleted at once)

[ENVIRONMENT]

classpath=

The path and the file name of the archive for layout files.

[TRACE]

file=

The path and file name of the trace file.

The characters are used as place holders for consecutive numbering. When the agent starts, the log files are renamed in order to ensure that the current log file always shows the number "00".

trccount=

The number of stored trace files.

database=

The trace flag for the utility's database access.

Allowed values: "0" (default value) to "9"

Trace flags must only be used in close cooperation with Automic Support.

[SOURCEDB]

SQLDRIVERCONNECT=

Connection for the database.

ODBCVAR - Eight-digit command field for controlling database accesses.

1. Position = N - Do not use server cursor.
1. Position = S - Use server cursor (MS SQL Server 2000).
2. Position = N - Do not reestablish database connection after 1000 commits.
2. Position = D - Disconnects database after 1000 commits (perhaps due to memory problems).
3. Position = N - Field names are compared case-sensitively (Oracle).
3. Position = J - Field names are compared case-insensitively (Oracle).
4. Position = N - Not used.
5. Position = N - The type of the database connection: ODBC
5. Position = I - The type of the database connection: OCI/CLI.
6. Position = N - Database access without User ID.
6. Position = O - Database access with User ID.
7. Position = N - Compression is deactivated.
7. Position = R - Compression is activated.
8. Position = The type of SQL syntax; N - MS SQL Server
8. Position = The type of SQL syntax; O - Oracle
8. Position = The type of SQL syntax; D - DB2

DSN - The alias name of the database connection.
UID - The user ID for database access.
PWD - The password for database access. It should always (also "") be encoded. See: Encoding passwords

Only for ORACLE:
The code-page settings must correspond to those of the database. Automic recommends using the variable NLS_LANG or the parameter SP=.

Syntax:
SP=NLS_LANGUAGE=language,NLS_TERRITORY=area,CODESET=character set,RECONNECT=interval,commit_write='BATCH,NOWAIT'

RECONNECT refers to the frequency with which the database connection should be re-established. This parameter is given priority even if a "D" was set in the 2nd digit of ODBCVAR (see above).

Automic recommends using the parameter commit_write='BATCH,NOWAIT' in order to increase performance.

For example:
(Two lines are used for the connection parameters for lack of space. In the INI file, you should only use one line).

SQLDRIVERCONNECT=ODBCVAR=NNJNIORO,DSN=UC4;UID=uc4;PWD=--1037B2E22BF022EBE2;
SP=NLS_LANGUAGE=AMERICAN,NLS_TERRITORY=AMERICA,CODESET=WE8ISO8859P15,commit_write='BATCH,NOWAIT'

See also: Setting up ORACLE databases

Only for DB2:

Use "N" on the 6. position in the connection string, when the UID for database access is a domain user.

[TARGETDB]

TargetDB=

The use of the destination database.

0 = The destination database is the same as the source database.
1 = For the destination database data of the entry SQLDRIVERCONNECT= is used.

CommitCnt=

Number of database actions after which a commit to the database is necessary.

SQLDRIVERCONNECT=

The connection to the destination database.

Will only be considered if TargetDB=1 is set.
