Configuring the Database Server (ladb)

The Database Server (ladb) analyzes and manages user requests, determines which database to access, and starts the database-specific driver (msfdb2000). The Database Server Configuration file (ladb.cfg) contains the parameters that define the maximum number of processes, files, and servers; the maximum size of files; and other values. You use a text editor to update the ladb.cfg file. Consider the following:

• Determine your data-processing requirements for open dictionaries and files, the maximum number of user processes that can access the database, and how you want to configure driver reuse. Set the values in the ladb.cfg file appropriately.

• Some values are preset by installation programs, based on information you enter. You may need to make ongoing adjustments based on your data processing requirements. Any values in the configuration file can be updated at any time. Changes are implemented by restarting the database driver (ladb).
