This table lists the CONNX ODBC connection string parameters that can be used when opening a connection to the CONNX ODBC driver.
|
Connection Parameter Name |
Description |
|
Application |
Specifies the CONNX application to use when connecting. The application can be a database within the CDD or within an entire collection of databases. |
|
ClientID |
This is a user-defined identifier sent from the CONNX Client to the CONNX Server. It can be used to run custom procedures on the server during a connection. |
|
DBKey |
This is an Rdb-only feature. The only valid option is ATTACH. If DBKEY=ATTACH is specified, then Rdb DBKEYS is not reused throughout the lifetime of a connection. |
|
DBREADONLY |
A list of databases in the CDD, separated by commas, which are treated as read only. |
|
DBREADWRITE |
A list of databases in the CDD, separate by commas, which are treated as read/write. |
|
DSN |
The User or System DSN name to use for connecting. The correct DD, FILEDSN, or DSN must be specified. |
|
DD |
A full path to the name of the CONNX Data Dictionary to use for connecting. This can be used as a replacement for DSN or FILEDSN. This option enables "DSN-less" connections. The correct DD, FILEDSN, or DSN must be specified. |
|
Exclusive |
Connect to all databases in "exclusive" mode. |
|
FILEDSN
|
The name of the file data source to use during the connection. The correct DD, FILEDSN, or DSN must be specified. |
|
Node |
The name of the server to connect to. This option is only useful if connecting to a CDD that only has one data source in it. |
|
OEM |
Key used for OEM redistributors. |
|
Prompt |
Options are "YES" or "NO". Determines whether CONNX displays a logon dialog if sufficient connection information is not specified. |
|
PWD |
The CONNX password. |
|
READONLY |
This option connects to all databases in the CDD in read only mode. |
|
RPC |
The name of a CONNX RPC to execute right after a connection has been established. |
|
UID |
The CONNX UserID. |
|
ADADBIDLIST |
Allows dynamic rebinding of adabas DBIDs
in the CONNX data dictionary. This is useful if you
have multiple Adabas databases with identical structures, but
different data. At connection time, you can redirect one
or more databases in the CDD to different adabas DBIDs. It
is the responsibility of the user to ensure that the structure
is the same between the database, otherwise error will occur during
query processing. |
