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 Parameters button in the configuration dialog box or in the file default.arg. The parameters may also be set in the registry on a computer with D2000 Server to which the process is connecting.
The following table includes an overview of the start parameters for processes.
Parameter | Parameter validity | Meaning |
|---|---|---|
/? /h | All client processes of the D2000 system | Displays the list of permissible parameters along with an explanation of their meaning for the existing process. |
/AF<Method> | D2000 HI, D2000 GrEditor, D2000 CNF, D2000 Application Manager, D2000 DDE Server, D2000 System Console, D2000 Tell, D2000 Browser | Forces another authentication method for verification of a user's identity than the authentication method required by the process D2000 Server. To use a specific authentication method, it must be permitted in the user's configuration (parameter Authentication methods). |
/AN<Name> | Name is the name of a D2000 system user for automatic login into the process after starting the process. If the /AP parameter is not entered, the name is entered into the login window, and a password will be required. | |
--ANONYMIZEPERIOD=<seconds> | The parameter sets the time period in seconds of anonymization and table row deletion. The default value is 3600 seconds (1 hour). | |
--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 UTF-8 encoding. The parameter must be used, providing that the communication partner is of an older version than 9.X, and the text values are transmitted. |
/AO<NameOfPicture> | NameOfPicture is the name of the picture opened after +1. login in to the process | |
/AP<Password> | The Password is the user's password for automatic login 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 (Active) server (manual or automatic). | |
/ASG<group> | Automatic HOT (Active) server switching. The parameter group defines the name of a redundant group. | |
/ASI<interval> | Automatic HOT (Active) 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 backup is generated when starting the process. The parameter /B0 causes no generation of the backup. The number of backups (value of the parameter BkpNr) can be within 0...3. If the parameter is not entered, the default value /B0 is used. | |
--batch_mode | The parameter modifies an interpretation of DB_SET_PROCESS_PARAMS. | |
/C<ApplName> | Application name. | |
/CT | All client processes of the D2000 system | The process will use the time of the computer on which it is started. If the parameter is not entered (Default), the process will use the D2000 Server's time. |
/DBCA | The process D2000 Archiv deletes old data from the archive database and reorganizes it only if it is in the active mode (in redundant systems, the process must also be connected to the HOT Server). | |
/DBCP | The process D2000 Archiv deletes old data from the archive database and reorganizes it only if it is in the passive mode (or in active mode in a redundant system as long as it is connected to the SBS Server). | |
/DBCS | D2000 Archiv (only for Oracle database) | The process D2000 Archiv will use ALTER TABLE SHRINK SPACE instead of the SQL command ALTER TABLE MOVE for reorganization (this command is available only for Oracle 10g and above). |
/DBCY | Enables the reorganization of the archive database. If the process D2000 Archiv is not started with the parameter, the process deletes old data from the archive database but doesn't reorganize the archive tables (for reasons of backward 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 only 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 days defined by the parameter <number_of_days>. | |
/DBD<version> | When the parameter is entered, the D2000 KOM process will report the specified version of the KomAPI interface (VerLo item in the InitParams structure) during the initialization of the OEM protocols. Attention - in fact the interface does not change, so OEM protocols may not work correctly if they use non-existent InitParams structure items or items that were moved or changed when the interface version was changed. | |
/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). Requests for recalcs of the statistics and calculated archive objects are ignored. | |
/DBS<size> | Support for long strings (e.g., for working with CLOB columns of the Oracle database). By default, D2000 DBManager works with strings up to 4000 characters long. With this parameter, a reserved maximum size for a string can be changed. | |
/DBSH | The D2000 Archiv process shares the archive database with another process D2000 Archiv (e.g., working with a database cluster). There are 2 possible configurations:
Note: The recommended configuration is to use 2 or more instances of archive processes that are connected to a HOT (Active) server, with each instance having its own archive database. In this configuration, the /DBSH parameter is not used. | |
/DBSH | The 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. |
