Encyclopedia Identification

The Encyclopedia Identification dialog appears when you select Create and Initialize or Initialize as the configuration option. This dialog is skipped when you select Update or Skip as the configuration option. Enter the following Encyclopedia Identification Parameters in the Encyclopedia Identification dialog:

Encyclopedia ID ( 1 to 999999999)

Enter up to a nine-digit number, not zero, that becomes the Original Encyclopedia ID for this encyclopedia.

Encyclopedia Name (8 chars)

Enter up to an eight-digit US ASCII character name for the encyclopedia.

Encyclopedia Description (32 chars)

Enter up to a 32-digit US ASCII character encyclopedia description.

Important! This information is important for the first time the CSE Servers starts to register the encyclopedia with the Coordination Service.

Note: When creating or initializing a new Coordination database and Encyclopedia database simultaneously, cse_config uses the information in this dialog to register the Encyclopedia, and grants the default Encyclopedia Administrator, ENCYADMN, access to the Encyclopedia. When the cse_config program finishes and the CSE Servers start, the ENCYADMN account has access to the encyclopedia.

When creating or initializing a new Coordination database and updating an Encyclopedia database simultaneously, cse_config does not register the Encyclopedia. Manually register the Encyclopedia and manually grant access to ENCYADMN through the Coordination Client to ensure that the ENCYADMN account has access to the Encyclopedia.
