Disable Connection Attributes Rollback

Typically, when an active or live connector has its connection attributes modified, you can perform a rollback of the connection attributes if the new connection attributes (such as a new password) do not lead to a successful connection. If necessary, you can disable the rollback.

To disable the rollback

1. Do one of the following:
   • Set either of the Connector instance attributes CONN_ROLLBACK_CONNECTION_ATTRS or !rollbackConnectionAttrs! to false.

     Note: You can set the virtual attribute rollbackConnectionAttrs! when acquiring your connector. You can map it to any attribute as long as it has a connectorMapTo=!rollbackConnectionAttrs!

   • Set the rollbackConnectionAttrs property in Connector.xml to false.
   • Note: If the connector instance attribute is set, it takes precedence over the rollbackConnectionAttrs property.

Example: Setting rollbackConnectionAttrs to false

This example shows you how to set the rollbackConnectionAttrs property to false. For example, the AS400 connector sets the property to false because by default three attempts to connect with the wrong password causes the user acquiring the connection to be locked out:

<property name="rollbackConnectionAttrs">

<value>false</value>

</property>
