14.4 Reconfiguring Database Connection Properties

The primary settings in the configuration files that can be configured using the dbconfig utility are related to the database connection, including:

WARNING:Do not manually edit the database connection properties. Use the dbconfig utility to change any database connection values within the files.

To Reconfigure Database Connection Properties

  1. Log in to the Novell Sentinel Log Manager server as novell user on UNIX.

  2. Go to the /opt/novell/sentinel_log_mgr/bin directory.

  3. Enter the following command:

    dbconfig –a config_Directory/config [-u username] [-p password] [-h hostname] [-t portnum] [-d database] [-s server] [-help] [‑version]
    

    For example,

    dbconfig –a /etc/opt/novell/sentinel_log_mgr/config [-u username] [-p password] [-h hostname] [-t portnum] [-d database] [-s server] [-help] [‑version]
    

Changing these settings might affect database performance and should be done with caution.
