Database information

Table 5. Database configuration - database information
Setting Description My setting
Database server hostname The fully qualified hostname of the server or the IP address of the server hosting the entity database.  
Database name (IBM DB2 UDB and Microsoft SQL Server) The name of the entity database.  
Database SID (Oracle databases only) The Oracle system ID of the entity database.  
Database schema (IBM DB2 databases only) The name of the DB2 database schema.  
Username Administrator user name for this database. You must provide a valid user name.
Note: If using Oracle trusted/client authentication, the OPS$ prefix is required when entering the username. For example: OPS$johndoe.
Note: If using Microsoft SQL Server trusted/client authentication, use the database user (non-operating system) you created.
 
Password Administrator database password for the user name provided for this database  
Database port The TCP/IP database port number.
  • (IBM DB2 default setting is 50000)
  • (Microsoft SQL default setting is 1433)
  • (Oracle default setting is 1521)

Database population

Table 6. Database configuration - database population
Setting Description My setting
Update tables automatically Generates the SQL necessary to create the database schemas and tables necessary for your installation and executes it. (Default setting)
Generate SQL only.

Generates the SQL necessary to create the database schemas and tables necessary for your installation and writes it to .txt files (one per database) in the <installation_directory>/installer/logs/ directory.

On Microsoft Windows: The ISQL Utility is not supported since it cannot handle large scripts. If manually populating a schema using the provided SQL scripts in a Microsoft SQL Server database, you must use the OSQL utility or the SQL Query Analyzer to execute the script. Using the ISQL utility results in a failure with an error message that reads "Insufficient memory to continue". Allowing the installer to generate and execute the SQL scripts will avoid this problem altogether.

 
Skip database population    

Pipeline error configuration

Table 7. Pipeline configuration - pipeline error configuration
Setting Description My setting
Number of errors which will cause the pipeline to shutdown The number of errors which will cause the pipeline to shutdown (Default setting is 10)

Address correction

Table 8. Pipeline configuration - address correction
Setting Description My setting
Enable Address Correction Specifies that you have installed address correction software, and allows you to choose the supported address correction software product and server setting.  
Pitney Bowes Universal Addressing Module This radio button specifies that you are using Pitney Bowes Universal Addressing Module as your address correction software.  
Address Correction hostname and port number The fully qualified hostname of the server or the IP address of the server hosting the entity database and the port number of the address correction server.

Pipeline input transports

Table 9. Pipeline configuration - pipeline input transports
Setting Description My setting
Create pipeline input transports? This checkbox signifies that you want to create pipeline transports. (Default and un-deselectable checkbox if Visualizer is installed)
http:// The name of the server or the IP address of the server and the port number of the HTTP transport. HTTP transports transport the incoming records into a system node – typically, a pipeline and return a response back to the sending host.host:port (Required if the Visualizer is installed)
Create file transport? This checkbox creates a file transport. File transports allow you to move data from a specific UMF formatted file into a system node – typically, a pipeline.  
file:/ absolutepath/to/filename.xml
