Required. The connection type. Select PWX NRDB Batch.

The description of the connection. The description cannot exceed 255 characters.

Required. The database user name.

Required. The password for the database user name.

The owner of the connection. Default is the user who creates the connection. You can change the owner of the connection.

The code page that the Integration Service uses to extract data from the source database.

Storage array size, in number of records, that is used for partitioned or multithreaded sessions. For partitioned sessions, this array size is shared across the partitions. Valid values are from 1 through 100000.

Mode in which the Integration Service sends data to the PowerExchange Listener. Configure one of the following write modes:

Confirm Write On. Sends data to the PowerExchange Listener and waits for a response before sending more data. Select if error recovery is a priority. This option might decrease performance.
Confirm Write Off. Sends data to the PowerExchange Listener without waiting for a response. Use this option when you can reload the target table if an error occurs.
Asynchronous With Fault Tolerance. Sends data to the PowerExchange Listener without waiting for a response. This option also provides the ability to detect errors. This provides the speed of Confirm Write Off with the data integrity of Confirm Write On.

Controls whether to use offload processing. Offload processing transfers PowerExchange bulk data processing from the source system to the Integration Service machine. Select one of the following values:

No. Do not use offload processing.
Auto. PowerExchange determines whether to use offload processing.
Filter After. Offloads the bulk data processing to the PowerCenter Integration Service machine, including the filtering of data.
Filter Before. Offloads processing to the PowerCenter Integration Service machine but continues to filter data on the source system.
If you select Filter Before for an IMS unload file data source, PowerExchange changes the selection to Filter After.

The number of threads that PowerExchange uses on the Integration Service machine to process bulk data. For optimal performance, this value should not exceed the number of installed or available processors on the Integration Service machine. Valid values are from 1 through 64.

Number of seconds the Integration Service attempts to reconnect to the data source or target if the connection fails. If the Integration Service cannot connect to the database in the retry period, the operation fails.

Select to compress source data during the PowerCenter session.

The type of encryption that the Integration Service uses. Select one of the following values:

None.
RC2.
DES.

Default is None.

The level of encryption that the Integration Service uses. If you select RC2 or DES for Encryption Type, select one of the following values to indicate the encryption level.

1. Uses a 56-bit encryption key for DES and RC2.
2. Uses a 168-bit triple encryption key for DES. Uses a 64-bit encryption key for RC2.
3. Uses a 168-bit triple encryption key for DES. Uses a 128-bit encryption key for RC2.

Ignored if you do not select an encryption type.

Interprets the pacing size as rows or kilobytes. Select to represent the pacing size in number of rows. If you clear this option, the pacing size represents kilobytes.

Convert character fields to string fields so that embedded nulls in data are processed as spaces.

PowerExchange connection override values, separated by semicolons. You can enter any of the following overrides:

TCPIP_OP_TIMEOUT=network_operation_timeout; 
TCPIP_CON_TIMEOUT=connection_timeout; 
WRT_ERROR_HANDLING=Y

If you use write partitioning and set the Write Mode attribute to Confirm Write On, you can specify

WRT_ERROR_HANDLIN=Y

to use an alternative method of error handling that is more efficient than the default method when the input data contains many errors. You can also specify this statement in the dbmover.cfg configuration file.

Amount of data that the source system can pass to the PowerExchange Listener. Configure the pacing size if an external application, database, or the Integration Service node is a bottleneck. The lower the value, the faster the performance. Enter 0 for maximum performance.

Required. Location of the PowerExchange Listener node. The location is defined in the first parameter of the NODE statement in the PowerExchange dbmover.cfg configuration file.

Specifies whether PWXPC writes PowerExchange messages related to a CDC session in the PowerCenter session log.
