Environment Variables
Name and value of environment variables used by the Integration Service at run time.
If you specify the LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable in the operating system profile properties, the Integration Service appends the value of this variable to its LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable. The Integration Service uses the value of its LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable to set the environment variables of the child processes generated for the operating system profile.
If you do not specify the LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable in the operating system profile properties, the Integration Service uses its LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable.
