Configuring an Environment Variables List for the Main Server
Configuring an Environment Variables List for the Main Server
By default, Data Replication uses the system environment variables for all servers. You can optionally add a custom environment variables list to use with a particular Server Manager Main server and replication configuration.
To view the system environment variables from the
Server Manager
tab >
Servers
view , click the
System Environment
icon button on the Server Managers toolbar.
To add a custom environment variables list, click the
Server Manager
tab >
Environment
view.
Click
Custom Environment
.
In the
Custom Environment Editor
dialog box, click
New
.
In the
New
dialog box, enter a name and owner for the environment variables list and click
OK
.
The names of environment variables lists can contain the digits 0-9, Latin letters A-Z and a-z, and the underscore (_) character. The Data Replication Console truncates list names that are longer than 100 characters.
Only the owner of the custom environment variables list can edit it later.
Click
Close
.
The
Server Manager
tab >
Environment
view is displayed again.
In the
Environment Lists
list, select the name of the new environment variables list. Also verify that the correct Main server is selected.
To add an environment variable to the list, click the
New
icon button on the Server Managers toolbar.
In the
New
dialog box, enter the environment variable name and value. Then click
OK
.
Environment variable names can contain the digits 0-9, Latin letters A-Z and a-z, and the underscore (_) character. The Data Replication Console truncates environment variable names that are longer than 100 characters.
The environment variable appears in the variables list box.
The following image shows a list with one environment variable:
Repeat steps 7 and 8 to add more environment variables to the list.
To assign the custom environment variables list to a specific configuration and Server Manager Main server, perform the following substeps:
Click the
Configs
view.
Select a configuration and click the
Properties
icon button.
In the
Runtime environment
list for the source or target Server Manager, select the environment variables list.
At run time, Data Replication uses the environment variables that are defined in the list for replication jobs that use the configuration.
