Building C-ISAM Sample Database Tables
The CONNX Desktop C-ISAM module enables access to C-ISAM database objects through the C-ISAM driver.
The following procedure runs a script designed to insert CONNX sample data into a C-ISAM database installed on a C-ISAM server or, in Windows, on a local host machine.
Sample database tables can be created either during installation or after installation. During installation, a dialog box appears asking whether you want to install sample database tables.
1. During installation, click Yes to install the sample database tables, or go to Start > All Programs > CONNX Sample Databases > Build C-ISAM Sample Data.
2. In the C-ISAM Sample Database Logon dialog box appears, enter the TCP/IP host name or address for your system platform, a privileged user account name, and a user account password under Logon Information.
If you are running C-ISAM on a Windows platform, enter localhost in the Server text box.
3. Port 6500 is listed in the TCP/IP Port text box by default. Any change made to the port setting in this text box becomes a permanent change to the port setting of the imported database. See
Editing the OpenVMS Site-Specific Startup Command Procedure for information about changing the port setting on the server. 4. Select a destination database from the dropdown list.
5. Click OK.
The samples are installed in the selected data source table and appear in the CONNX Data Dictionary Manager window.
