Install the Databridge Host

Before you install, you'll need to determine the usercode and pack that you'll use to install. For best results, we recommend that you choose a privileged usercode and the primary pack. Use the following procedure to install the Databridge host software.

To install the Databridge Host

1. Sign in to the privileged usercode. If you install from DVD to a nonprivileged usercode, all object files will be marked as restricted, which causes the installation WFL to pause (as explained in step 4).

2. Copy the Databridge installation WFL (WFL/DATABRIDGE/INSTALL) to the host.
   • If you're installing from uploaded files, upload DISKINSTALL and IMAGE files using a file transfer tool capable of binary/image transfers to the privileged usercode where Databridge is to be installed. Sign on to the usercode, and then use the following command:

     WFL UNWRAP *= AS = OUTOF DISKINSTALL

   • If you're installing from the DVD, decompress the file

     WFL UNWRAP *= AS = OUTOF *CDINSTALL FROM DB63 (KIND=CDROM)

     In the WFL file, change DATABRIDGE to the version-specific DVD name and save the file:

     G WFL/DATABRIDGE/INSTALL

     REP /FROM DATABRIDGE/ /FROM DB63/ : T

     SA

3. If you're upgrading, back up the DATA/ENGINE/CONTROL directory in case problems exist with new keys.

4. Start the Databridge Installation WFL.

   START WFL/DATABRIDGE/INSTALL

   When prompted, respond with "OK<Transmit>", and then enter Databridge keys.

5. For first-time installations, create a new DBServer control file and edit it:
   1. Copy DATA/SERVER/SAMPLE/CONTROL AS DATA/SERVER/CONTROL
   2. Change SOURCE <datasourcename> to the name of the data source that the client uses.
   3. (Optional) Change TCP/IP Port = 11367 (the default) to the port you want to use.
   4. Change Database = DESCRIPTION/<databasename> ON <packname> to reflect the usercode/location of the description file for the database to be replicated.

6. (Recommended) Enable the Databridge Plus software for near real-time access to audit files. Execute the following command (replacing <usercode> and <pack> with your values):

   SL DBAUDITSUPPORT=(<usercode>)OBJECT/DATABRIDGE/AUDITSUPPORT ON <pack>:TRUSTED,LINKCLASS=3

7. If you are upgrading, do the following:
   1. Bring down the Databridge Server using the AX QUIT command.
   2. Recompile your tailored support libraries by entering the following command (replacing <usercode>, <databasename>, and <pack> with your values):

      START WFL/DATABRIDGE/COMP ("SUPPORT", "(<usercode>)<databasename> on

      <pack>")

   For more information on recompiling, see the Databridge Host Administrator's Guide.

1. Start the Databridge Server:

   START WFL/DATABRIDGE/SERVER

Notes:

• If your database uses guardfiles, you can include Databridge under database guardfile validation. See Set Up Guardfiles.
• For information about security options, see "Databridge Security" in the Databridge Host Administrator's Guide.
