This section provides information regarding Adabas Vista features which have been removed with Version 8.1.
Job Profile Overrides have been replaced by File Translation Pages. Enabling jobs to use different translation targets can now be done simply by ensuring the appropriate page is included in the Runtime Controls for that job.
This parameter has been replaced with File Translation Pages. You can ensure a job runs with a particular set of translation rules by ensuring the appropriate page is included in the runtime controls for that job.
A source name can no longer be attributed to a translation rule as a means of identifying the source file.
Note:
This means the API function TRTARG will no longer accept a source
name as a means of identifying a source file - a source database and file
number must now be specified.
The Published/Draft mechanism to activate Adabas Vista partitioning and translation files has been replaced by the use of Generations and Generation deltas.
The API function PROFID has been replaced with the new API function PAGE.
This setting is no longer necessary and has been removed. The page-list is now automatically validated and missing/invalid pages are automatically ignored. Plus, the conversion (if upgrading) automatically creates valid page lists. In addition, you can now use the (new) PF9 facility when maintaining page-lists to check validity.
