Values
AlternateTask=task_code

Identifies an alternate task defining the resource limits and timeout values for a session. The default is CASERVER. The task must be defined as a task on the CA IDMS system generation TASK statement. This value comes from the Task Code field on the Server tab of the CA IDMS Server ODBC Administrator dialog. For more information about resource limits for external user sessions, see CA IDMS System Generation and CA IDMS System Operations.

AsciiEbcdicTables=translation_table_name

Specifies the name of the CECP translation table selected to convert EBCDIC data on the server to ASCII data on the PC, and vice versa. The value comes from the International tab of the CA IDMS Server ODBC Administrator dialog.

BufferLength= integer_value

Specifies the size of the buffer used by the CA IDMS Server listener for TCPIP send and receive requests. This value comes from the "Buffer Length" field on the Advanced Server Options tab of the CA IDMS Server ODBC Administrator dialog.

ExternalWait=integer_value

Specifies the number of seconds that the CA IDMS Server listener waits for a request from the client when a task is active. This value overrides the EXTERNAL WAIT INTERVAL specified for the TASK when enabled by specifying TIMEOUT=-1 in the CA IDMS Server listener PTERM definition.

This is optional. When set to 0, the System Default for all servers value is used, if any. For more information about TASK and PTERM System Generation statements see the CA IDMS Server System Generation guide.

Node=via_node_name

Specifies the node with which CAICCI establishes a connection. The system identified by via_node_name must contain a RESOURCE table entry for the system identified by node name. Use this option when the system containing your tables does not directly communicate with CAICCI.

ResourceInterval=integer_value

Specifies the number of seconds that the CA IDMS Server listener waits for a request from the client when no task is active. This value overrides the RESOURCE INTERVAL specified for the TASK when enabled by specifying TIMEOUT=-1 in the CA IDMS Server listener PTERM definition. When set to 0, the System Default for all servers value is used, if any.

Version=0|1

Specifies the version of the CA IDMS Server mainframe component installed on the CA IDMS CV.

Version 4.3 or later of the CA IDMS Server mainframe component supports password encryption using a proprietary algorithm. When this option is set to 1, the password is encrypted prior to being transmitted over the network and is decrypted by the CCI line driver in the CV. This encryption process is discrete and is not affected by any other encryption applied by technologies such as SSL. CA IDMS releases 14.0 SP4, 14.1 SP4 and all subsequent releases contain a Version 4.3 or later mainframe component and therefore support a setting of 1. For older CA IDMS releases, set this option to 0 to specify Version 4.2 or earlier.
