This Natural profile parameter specifies the DBID to be used for a database access at runtime. This database ID specified with the UDB parameter replaces DBID 0 when Natural objects are executed.

Possible settings 0 or 1 - 65535, except 255 Valid database ID.

Note:
Database ID 255 is reserved for logical system files for Software AG products, see profile parameter LFILE.

Default setting database ID applicable for FUSER  
Dynamic specification yes  
Specification within session no  
Application programming interface USR1005N See SYSEXT - Natural Application Programming Interfaces in the Utilities documentation.

Notes:

  1. The DBID 0 and the databases selected with the UDB parameter must be of the same type (ADA/ADA, SQL/SQL or XML/XML, for example).
  2. If no DBID is specified in the DDM used, the DBID specified with the UDB profile parameter determines which database is accessed. Thus it is possible to have different user environments without multiple FUSER files being required.
  3. If no DBID is specified in the DDM and the UDB profile parameter is not specified, the DBID that applies to the FUSER system file is used.
