The HiRDB administrator uses either of the following tools to create HiRDB system definitions:
The created HiRDB system definitions should be stored in the files listed in Table 1-5. These files are referred to collectively as HiRDB system definition files.
Table 1-5 Storage files for HiRDB system definitions (HiRDB/Parallel Server)
Definition type | Storage file name |
---|---|
System common definition | %PDDIR%\conf\pdsys |
Unit control information definition | %PDDIR%\conf\pdutsys |
Server common definition | %PDDIR%\conf\pdsvrc |
Front-end server definition | %PDDIR%\conf\server-name1 |
Dictionary server definition | %PDDIR%\conf\server-name1 |
Back-end server definition | %PDDIR%\conf\server-name1 |
UAP environment definition | %PDDIR%\conf\pduapenv\arbitrary-name2 |
SQL reserved word definition | %PDDIR%\conf\pdrsvwd\arbitrary-name2 |
foreign server information definition | %PDDIR%\conf\foreign-server-name |
Hub optimization information definition | %PDDIR%\conf\arbitrary-name |
When the simple setup tool is employed to create HiRDB system definitions, the simple setup tool itself sets up the HiRDB environment. The HiRDB system definitions are created automatically on the basis of information specified with the simple setup tool and are stored in the files listed in Table 1-5. If necessary, the HiRDB administrator can use the simple setup tool to modify the definition contents (operand specification values).
Note that the following definitions cannot be created using the simple setup tool:
To set up a HiRDB environment using commands, you use a text editor such as Notepad to create HiRDB system definitions. Specify each HiRDB system definition operand as appropriate to the HiRDB execution environment.
Once the HiRDB system definitions have been created, use the pdconfchk command to check the integrity of the HiRDB system definition operands; for details about the operands that are checked, see F. Operands Checked by the pdconfchk Command.
