Parameter File Setup
The AppServer connects to the QAD Enterprise Applications databases based on values defined in a parameter file. This parameter file is similar to those used when starting a normal QAD Enterprise Applications session with some minor differences. The parameter file can contain any of the client startup parameters that are required. It should not contain a -p (startup procedure) because this is controlled by the AppServer settings. The following is an example of a parameter file that is connecting to remote database servers:-db mfgprod -ld qaddb -H hp40 -S mfg-server -N TCP -trig triggers
-db admprod -ld qadadm -H hp40 -S adm-server -N TCP
-db helpprod -ld qadhelp -H hp40 -S help-server -N TCP
-d mdy -yy 1920 -Bt 350 -c 30 -D 100 -mmax 3000 -nb 200 -s 63
The following is an example of a parameter file that is connecting to local database servers:-db /mfgpro/db/mfgprod -ld qaddb -znotrim -trig triggers
-db /mfgpro/db/hlpprod -ld qadhelp
-db /mfgpro/db/admprod -ld qadadm
-d mdy -yy 1920 -Bt 350 -c 30 -D 100 -mmax 3000 -nb 200 -s 63
