Description
|
Database Type ODBC (-dt ODBC)
|
Optional
|
Specifies that the type of the target data source is ODBC. Note that the data source must be a supported ODBC data source.
|
Physical Database Name (-db)
|
Required
|
Indicates the name by which OpenEdge recognizes the ODBC data source to which you want to connect. This name must match the name that you used when you registered the data source as an ODBC data source.
|
Logical Database Name (-ld)
|
Optional
|
Specifies the logical name of the ODBC data source. This is the name that you use to refer to the data source in your applications. You must use this parameter only when the logical data-source name differs from its physical name. This name should match the logical database name that you defined in your schema holder.For example, your applications might refer to the Sybase demo database as mydemo. In this case, the physical name is demo, and the logical name is mydemo.
|
Host Name (-H)
|
Required for remote DataServer
|
Indicates the name of the host machine in the network.
|
Service Name (-S)
|
Required for remote DataServer
|
Indicates the name of the service that you are calling. If you use the NameServer with Progress Explorer, specify the service name or IP address of the host machine where the NameServer resides. If you are using _probrkr.exe or the Progress Explorer without a NameServer, specify the service name or IP address of the host machine where the broker resides.
|
User ID (-U)
|
Required if the ODBC data source requires it
|
Supplies the login name that the DataServer uses to log into the ODBC data source.
|
Password (-P)
|
Required if the ODBC data source requires it
|
Supplies the password that the DataServer uses to log into the ODBC data source. Different login name and password combinations allow for different levels of user privileges.
|
Data Service (-DataService)
|
Required for Progress Explorer connections
|
Specifies the data service the NameServer uses. This must be used in conjunction with the -Dsrv option SVUB,1. For more information, see Starting and stopping a broker process from the Progress Explorer and connecting a client.
|
Explorer Redirection (-SVUB)
|
Required for Progress Explorer connections
|
Redirects connection logic to the Progress Explorer instead of ProBroker. For more information, see Starting and stopping a broker process from the Progress Explorer and connecting a client.
|
Single–User Mode (-1)
|
Optional
|
Specifies that a schema holder is used in single-user mode. Single–user mode is the default unless a server is started for the schema holder.
|
Read-Only (-RO)
|
Optional
|
Specifies that a schema holder is read-only. Connecting a schema holder as read-only increases processing speed at client startup time. It also allows multiple client processes on the same machine to access the schema holder without starting additional server processes.
|
Local Cache (-cache)
|
Optional
|
Specifies that you are using a local cache file for the schema holder. Create the cache file with the SAVE CACHE COMPLETE statement.
|
DataServer (-Dsrv)
|
Optional
|
Specifies options with which you control your ODBC Driver and DataServer environment. See Query tuning with connection and startup parameters and ODBC options more information.
Note: When you specify a list of -Dsrv parameters, be sure not to include any spaces anywhere in this list.
|
Direct Connect (-DirectConnect)
|
Optional
|
Instructs the client to bypass the controlling NameServer and connect directly to the ODBC DataServer Broker.
|
Server Join(-nojoinbysqldb)
|
Optional
|
Specifies that the client evaluates and performs queries that have joins. This might slow performance, but it provides results that are consistent with OpenEdge behavior.Use -nojoinbysqldb at startup time.
