Problem:

How do you merge an Enterprise Link 3.1 cfg file to version 5.0?

Resolution:

EnterpriseLink for Solaris keeps configuration settings in a file config/EnterpriseLink.cfg in the EnterpriseLink configuration directory.

When installing EnterpriseLink 5.0 it will install EnterpriseLink.cfg with all of the settings needed for correct EnterpriseLink 5.0 operation.  It will not copy your EnterpriseLink 3.1 configurations, you must make changes manually either using the web page interface through http://machine-name/stadmin or using a text editor such as "vi" on Solaris.

For example, the default EnterpriseLink 5.0 config file will be:

[Server]

DatabaseType=ODBC

DataStreamFile=elhome/logs/Server.rep

DebugLogFile=elhome/logs/Server.log

ErrorDirectory=elhome/errors

DisconnectPage=SSDISCONNECT

RepositoryDSN=ELRepository

RepositoryPassword=

RepositoryUser=

TerminalType=IBM-3278-2

MaxSessErrMsg=

AdvanceBackward=4

ConnectionTimeout=10

DebugFlag=0

IdleSessionCheck=300

MaxCachePage=200

MaxDBConnection=1

MaxNetBufferSize=8192

MaxSession=1000

RefreshRepositoryCache=0

SanityWaitTimeout=1500

SecondaryMatchRatio=900

SecurityMapPurge=1

SessionTimeout=1800

TertiaryMatchRatio=800

CursorPosition=1

AutoSplit=1

SimplifiedMerge=1

MaxApp=20

KeyLockTimeout=10

HostCodePage=

BrowserCodePage=

CheckNumericLevel=2

AdminUser=

BaseFontFace=

The existing EnterpriseLink 3.1 may contain:

SimplifiedMerge=0

AdvanceBackward=20

Use "vi" to change the "1" to "0" and "4" to "20".
