Start Parameters (Processes)
Start parameters of processes
Start parameters can be used to start processes. During the process configuration, these parameters are defined by means of the button Parameters in the configuration dialog box or in file Start Parameters (Processes)#default.arg. The parameters may be set also in registry on computer with running D2000 Server on which the server is being connected.
The following table includes the overview of the start parameters for processes.
Parameter | Parameter validity | Meaning |
|---|---|---|
/? /h | All client processes of D2000 system | Displays the list of permissible parameters along with explanation of their meaning for existing process. |
/AF<Method> | D2000 HI, D2000 GrEditor, D2000 CNF, D2000 Application Manager, D2000 DDE Server, D2000 System Console, D2000 Tell, D2000 Browser | Forces other authentication method for verification of user's identity than the authentication method required by the process D2000 Server. To use a specific authentication method, it must be permitted for the in his configuration (parameter Authentication methods). |
/AN<Name> | Name is the name of a D2000 system user for automatic logon into the process after starting the process. If the /AP parameter is not entered, the name is added into the login window and password will be required. | |
--ANSI | D2000 GateWay Client, D2000 GateWay Server | The parameter enforces the Windows 1250 encoding for transmitted texts. If it is not entered, the texts use UTF8 encoding. The parameter must be used providing that the communication partner is of older version than 9.X and the text values are transmitted. |
/AO<NameOfPicture> | NameOfPicture is the name of picture opened after +1. logon into the process | |
/AP<Password> | Password is the user's password for automatic logon into the process after starting the process. /AP means that the password is an empty string. The parameter is also used when changing the access password to the configuration database by the kernel.exe process. | |
/AS | Disables the synchronization of bitmaps when starting the process. | |
/ASE | Enables switching the HOT server (manual or automatic). | |
/ASG<group> | Automatic HOT server switching. The parameter group defines the name of a redundant group. | |
/ASI<interval> | Automatic HOT server switching. The parameter interval defines the time interval, after the lapse of which the HOT server is to be switched. | |
/B<BkpNr> | BkpNr is the number of configuration database backups. Database backups is generated when starting the process. The parameter /B0 causes no generation of the backup. Number of backups (value of the parameter BkpNr) can be within 0...3. If the parameter is not entered, there are automatically used the parameters /B0 for the process D2000 Server. | |
--batch_mode | Parameter modifies an interpretation of DB_SET_PROCESS_PARAMS. | |
/C<ApplName> | Application name. | |
/CT | All client processes of D2000 system | Process will use the time of the computer, where is started. If the parameter is not entered (Default), the process will use the time of the computer with running D2000 Server. |
/DBCA | The process D2000 Archiv in the active mode deletes old data from the archive database and reorganizes it (in redundant systems, the process must be also connected to HOT Server). | |
/DBCP | The process D2000 Archiv in the passive mode deletes old data from the archive database and reorganizes it (or passive mode in redundant systems, but the process must be connected to SBS Server). | |
/DBCS | D2000 Archiv (only for Oracle database) | The process D2000 Archiv will use ALTER TABLE SHRINK SPACE instead of SQL command ALTER TABLE MOVE for reorganisation (this command is available only for Oracle 10g and above). |
/DBCY | Enables the reorganization of archive database. If the process D2000 Archiv is not started with the parameter, the process deletes old data from archive database but doesn't reorganize the archive tables (for reasons of back compatibility before the implementation of the reorganization features). | |
/DBCY | Enables the debug information on the status of the Oracle cluster. Warning: The parameter can be used just for dbmanager_ora.exe. | |
/DBCP | Only in passive mode, the process D2000 Archiv can delete old data from the archive database and reorganize it (ORACLE). | |
/DBD<number_of_days> | The process D2000 Archiv limits the maximum archive depth to the number of day defined by the parameter <number_of_days>. | |
/DBD<number_of_requests> | The process D2000 DBManager will log performance warnings when a number of requests queued for a non-transactional connection exceeds the value number_of_requests. This parameter can be used for performance tuning. More... | |
/DBIV<flag> | The process D2000 Archiv ignores all values with the same flag as defined by the parameter <flag>. | |
/DBPO | Activates the archive attribute (Archiv keeps only primary data). Requirements on statistic and calculated archive objects are ignored. | |
/DBS<size> | Support for long strings (e.g. for working with CLOB columns of Oracle database). By default, D2000 DBManager works with strings upto 4000 characters long. With this parameter, a reserved maximum size for a string can be changed. | |
/DBSH | The process D2000 Archiv shares the archive database with another process D2000 Archiv (e.g. at work with database cluster). There are 2 possible configurations:
| |
/DBSH | Parameter is meaningful only in redundant systems.
When the server changes its status to HS again (resp. when the instance becomes active), the connections to the databases will be restored. | |
/DC | Disables the cache for pictures. The aim is to decrease memory requirements of process at the expense of slowing-down the picture opening. | |
--DEFAULT-TOOLBAR-COLOR | Paint toolbars using default grey color. If not specified, toolbars are painted white. | |
/DG | Decreases the memory requirements of the process at work with graphs at the expense of slowing-down the drawing of graphs which contains a lot data. | |
/DI | Shows specialized information (debug info) when starting the process. | |
/DL | Enables writing the contents of Listener window to *.LOG file (HI.LOG or GRE.LOG). | |
/DM<nickname> | Developer mode: enables the parallel running of several D2000 Server processes on one computer for development purposes. The value of <nickname> will be displayed in the topic of text console window of D2000 Server process (if the console window is visible, see the parameter /X) and it will be also added to the name of shared memory used for interprocess communication. | |
/DP | Processes with text console | (Debug Pipe) – The process will display the course of communication with D2000 Server. |
/DPA | Mode of receiving messages from the process D2000 Server: | |
/DUMP | All client processes of D2000 system | The monitoring process procdump.exe is started up along with the given process. It monitors the unhandled exceptions that may occur in the given process. If the process crashes due to this exception, a dump file is created in the log file of D2000 system (subdirectory dumps). Dump file contains the information about the process at the time of its crash, from which a user may determine the reason of the crash.
|
/DW | Processes with text console | Not minimizing the text window of the process after starting. If the parameter is not defined, the window will be minimized after starting. |
/E+<debug_category> | All processes of D2000 system | Enables (+) / disables (-) displaying of debug information of given category (debug_category) on start of the process. To enable / disable displaying of debug information and to view it you may also use the process D2000 System Console. Warning: Displaying debug information may cause system overload. |
/E+DBG.CHECK.OBJECTS | After the process D2000 Server has been started it executes the check of configuration of all objects. | |
/E+DBG/E+RTM.USELOCALCACHE | It activates the use of the cache data that are transferred from D2000 Server to D2000 HI. It enables, especially for slow networks (WiFi), to speed up the start of D2000 HI. The parameter must be entered when starting the process. When it is started for the first time, it creates the cache, which stores a lot of files into the subdirectory localstore (on the client side) in the application directory (for example, one for each event and picture). | |
/F<Period> | All client processes of D2000 system | Period is the sending period of WatchDog messages between CLIENT process and the process D2000 Server. It is set in seconds, where zero means not sending the message. Default value is /F60. |
/FI | Timeout for processing a request. It is given in seconds. | |
/FM | Using this parameter the topology will use complete calculation instead of partial More.. | |
/FS | Time to display error report if attempting to establish connection with D2000 Server has failed. Default value is 60 s. For the value of /FS0, there will be displayed neither the start window nor the error report. | |
--fullscreen | Switches to full-screen mode - it hides a header and toolbars of the main window and maximized dialog windows (pictures) as well. This functionality can be changed to special mode of HI. See more in the chapter Specific displaying of HI. | |
/GTWC<ipAddress:portNr> | IP address and port of D2000 Gateway Server, to which D2000 Gateway Client connects to. Parameter may be specified several times (in systems with redundant networks and/or redundant D2000 Gateway Servers). | |
/GTWL<portNr> | TCP port to listen for incoming D2000 Gateway Clients. | |
/H | Increases the priority for D2000 Server. Result is to get a better response during communication with network client processes. | |
/HW | All client processes of D2000 system | Parameter allows the process to logon to WDDemon application that checks the functionality of client processes. |
/KA<ArchivSize> | The parameter enables a function of the KOM Archiv. <ArchivSize> is the size of archive file - buffer within the range of 1...400 megabytes. | |
/KC<ApplName> | The parameter is valid just for the process KOM with the function KOM Archiv, that is starting without the process D2000 Server. | |
/KD<seconds> | This parameter is meaningful only for values which are acquired with timestamp information. | |
/KD<seconds> | This parameter concerns the warnings timeout expired, that the process DBManager writes to the log files and publishes via system variable SystemError, if a database operation takes more than 60 seconds to complete. | |
/KDBC |
