CONNX Data Integration Suite 14.8.0 | Operations Guide | Working with Database Objects in CONNX | CONNX and C-ISAM, DISAM, and Micro Focus | Introduction
 
Introduction
CONNX uses a local database definition file (CDD) that contains metadata relating to the various data sources it can access. The metadata is transferred to the CDD file by invoking the CONNX Data Dictionary tool, and specifying one of the following import options:
* C-ISAM, DISAM, and Micro Focus Manual Imports
* C-ISAM, DISAM, and Micro Focus COBOL File Definitions
* C-ISAM, DISAM, and Micro Focus Text File Imports
CONNX supports C-ISAM, DISAM, and Micro Focus databases version 7 and above.
Important: 
C-ISAM and DISAM performs all transactions at the Process level. Any actions taken in separate threads are all pooled into the single Process transaction. Consequently, transactions are not recommended in instances where multiple users are connecting through a JDBC server.
