CLEAN

Deletes all data from the Server Manager SQLite repository, SM.db3, including server properties, connections, schedules, tasks, and other server settings.

Do not use the

clean

parameter in combination with other parameters.

DBFILE="

file_name

"

Overrides the name of the internal SQLite repository file that the Server Manager uses for storing configuration file and internal service information.

DBSYNC_HOME=

path

Overrides the DBSYNC_HOME environment variable value for a Server Manager instance. Use this option for debugging purposes or when you run multiple Server Manager instances from different DBSYNC_HOME locations on the same system.

DEBUG

Runs the Server Manager in debug mode. Use this parameter only at the request of Informatica Global Customer Support.

DESC="

service_description

"

If you run the Server Manager as a service on Windows, optionally specify a description for the Server Manager service. Also see the RUN_AS_SERVICE parameter.

HELP

Displays a list of Server Manager parameters on screen.

Do not use the

help

parameter in combination with other parameters.

HTTP={0|

1

}

Indicates whether to use HTTP connections for the Server Manager. Options are:

0
. Do not use HTTP connections.
1
. Use HTTP connections.

If you do not specify the HTTP parameter or HTTPS parameter, when you start the Server Manager for the first time, it uses the default value of 1 to use HTTP connections. When you later start the Server Manager again, it uses the value from the preceding run.

Default value:

1

HTTPS={

0

|1}

Indicates whether to use HTTPS connections for the Server Manager. Options are:

0
. Do not use HTTPS connections.
1
. Use HTTPS connections.

If you do not specify the HTTPS parameter or HTTP parameter, when you start the Server Manager for the first time, it uses the default value of 1 for the HTTP parameter so that HTTP connections are used. When you later start the Server Manager again, it uses the value from the preceding run.

Default value:

0

HTTPS_PORT=

nnnn

If you set the HTTPS parameter to 1, use this parameter to override the default listener port through which a client submits HTTPS requests to the Server Manager. Valid values are integers from 1 through 65535.

Default value:

8089

If you run a Server Manager subserver later with a different port number, change the port number in the Data Replication Console on the

Server Manager

tab >

Servers

view.

INSTANCE="

server_name

"

If you run the Server Manager as a service on Windows or as a daemon on Linux or UNIX, optionally specify a name for the Server Manager instance that overrides the default name. Use this option if you run multiple Server Manager instances from different DBSYNC_HOME locations on the same system.

JOURNAL_MODE={DELETE|TRUNCATE|PERSIST|MEMORY|WAL|OFF}

Specifies the rollback journal mode for the SQLite repository that contains configuration information. Journal mode options are:

DELETE
. Deletes the rollback journal at the conclusion of each transaction.
TRUNCATE
. Commits transactions by truncating the rollback journal to zero length instead of deleting it.
PERSIST
. Prevents the rollback journal from being deleted at the end of each transaction.
MEMORY
. Stores the rollback journal in volatile RAM.
WAL
. Uses a write-ahead log instead of a rollback journal to implement transactions.
OFF
. Disables the rollback journal completely.

For more information about SQLite journal modes, see the SQLite documentation.

Default value:

DELETE for Linux and UNIX, WAL for Windows

Ensure that this parameter has the same value for all Data Replication components.

PORT=

nnnn

If the HTTP parameter is set to 1, overrides the default listener port through which a client submits HTTP requests to the Server Manager. Valid values are integers from 1 through 65535.

Default value:

8088

If you run a Server Manager subserver later with a different port number, change the port number in the Data Replication Console on the

Server Manager

tab >

Servers

view.

RESET_IDRADMIN

Resets the password for the idradmin account to empty. This parameter also unlocks the idradmin account if the account is locked out after the maximum number of failed login attempts that is specified in the MaxLoginAttempts property is reached.

Do not use the

RESET_IDRADMIN

parameter in combination with other Server Manager command-line parameters.

RUN_AS_SERVICE {-i|-r|-s|-k|-d}

On Windows, enter the RUN_AS_SERVICE parameter with one of the following options to install, start, or manage the Server Manager as a service:

-i
. Installs the server_manager program as a service but does not start it.
-r
. Removes the server_manager service from the Service Manager.
-s
. Starts the server_manager service.
-k
. Stops the server_manager service.
-d
. Runs the server_manager service in debug mode.

On Linux and UNIX, you do not need to use this parameter to start the daemon. The server_manager.sh script runs the Server Manager with the RUN_AS_SERVICE parameter by default.

START

On Linux and UNIX, starts the Server Manager instance.

If you run the server_manager.sh script without the

start

parameter, the script still starts the Server Manager instance by default. However, Informatica recommends that you include the

start

parameter to clearly indicate intent.

STATE={

0

|1|2}

Determines whether to start a Server Manager instance as a Main server or a subserver. Options are:

0
. Start the Server Manager without a predefined role. Data Replication assigns a role to the Server Manager instance the first time you perform one of the following actions in the Data Replication Console: connect to the Server Manager or add it as a subserver.
1
. Start the Server Manager instance as the Main server. You will not be able to add this Server Manager instance as a subserver later from the Data Replication Console.
2
. Start the Server Manager as a subserver. You will not be able to connect to this Server Manager instance later from the Data Replication Console.

Default value:

0

STOP

On Linux and UNIX, stops the Server Manager instance.

UDP_PORT=

nnnn

Overrides the default port through which the Server Manager communicates with the Data Replication components. Valid values are integers from 1 through 65535.

Default value:

8087

Examples:

server_manager.exe HELP

server_manager.exe RUN_AS_SERVICE –r
