Environment variables!

Post by milind »

Hi guys,

Its about the environment variables that you have in administrator.I have DS server running on NT.
Right now I have these three under the General..Customize category:
DS_ENABLE_RESERVED_CHAR_CONVERT, DS_TDM_TRACE_SUBROUTINE_CALLS, DS_TDM_PIPE_OPEN_TIMEOUT.

I know that more can be added in the DSParams files, but are there some more built-in (like the above three) which I can use?.
If yes, what are they and where is it documented?

thanks in advance

Haven't ever had a need to play with them. Have you tried contacting Ascential Support?

I've got to admit I've done a lot with job parameters and environment variables but I've never had to look or change the customisable DS ones. I assume the TDMLoad values are for that particular plug-in and extract values might turn up in this section if you install other plug-ins with customisable environment variables.
