Field Headers (case-sensitive)

Description

autoGenSQL

A TRUE or FALSE value that determines if SQL is automatically generated from Datical functions

deployThreshold

Pick one of the 3 available options:

  • stopOnError - Deployment will not be performed when errors are present in Pre-Deployment validation
  • stopOnWarn - Deployment will not be performed when errors and/or Warnings are present in Pre-Deployment validation
  • deployAlways - Deploy will occur regardless of validation results. NOT RECOMMENDED

externalStoredLogic

A TRUE or FALSE value that determines if storedLogic is inline or in external files

invalidsCheck

Oracle, SQL Server, or DB2 only

Determines the type of validity check for compiled objects
disabled - No check

limited - Only check objects targeted by a deployment and their dependencies

local - Check objects in all schemas specified in the deployment plan
global - Check across the entire database

invalidsAction

Oracle, SQL Server, or DB2 only

Determines what to do when the Stored Logic Validity Check fails. 

Both existing objects already in the database and new objects being deployed are checked.  

  • warn - print WARN message and continue
    • New objects that fail - print WARN message
    • Existing objects that fail - print WARN message
  • fail - print WARN or ERROR message, depending on objects
    • New objects that fail - print ERROR message
    • Existing objects that fail that were not targeted by a changeset in the deploy operation - print WARN message
    • (7.7 & later) Existing objects that fail that were targeted by a changeset in the deploy operation - print ERROR message

requireOptions

A TRUE or FALSE value that determines if Forecast and Deploy Options are always required

deployMode

Datical DB can optionally perform a full set of rules validations and deployment simulation prior to deploying the changes to the database. This is called a "Full" deploy. If you typically do a Forecast and then a deploy, you can set the deployMode to "quick" to skip the forecast and rules validation steps that happen during a Full deploy.

Valid values for this setting are:

  • quick
  • full

dbSchemaDefinition

The value of this setting determines whether the schema managed by this Plan are defined once for all Deployment Steps in the Plan (value: 'project') or specified independently with each Deployment Step (value:'dbDef') .  For multi-schema projects, this value should always be 'project'.  

multiCatalog

SQL Server only

A TRUE or FALSE value to indicate whether this Deployment Plan manages more than one catalog/database (MSSQL Server only).

multiSchema

A TRUE or FALSE value to indicate whether this Deployment Plan manages more than one schema. 

trackingSchema

The schema that should host the Datical Tracking Tables for the Deployment Steps in this Plan.

managedSchema

A comma-separated list of the schema to be managed by the Deployment Plan. They must be valid and available for the database specified by schemaSelectionStep.

schemaSelectionStep

DbDef to use for the list of managed schema in managedSchema. 

limitForecast

A TRUE or FALSE value that optimizes the forecast by limiting the objects under consideration to the ones that are getting deployed (instead of the entire database)

enableRowCount

Pick one of the 3 available options:

  • exact - Use a table scan to collect the row count. 
  • approximate - Use statistics to estimate the row count.
  • disabled - Do not collect row counts.

Before v5.7, the semantics were true|false.  When read in v5.7 or later, true is mapped to exact and false is mapped to disabled. 

forecastDML
Oracle only

A TRUE or FALSE value that enables DML forecasting.

enableDdlLockTimeout

Oracle only

A TRUE or FALSE value that enables the Oracle DDL_LOCK_TIMEOUT. The actual value 

ddlLockTimeoutValue

Oracle only

DDL commands require exclusive locks on internal structures. If these locks are not available some commands return with an "ORA-00054: resource busy" error message, which can be frustrating when trying to modify objects that are accessed frequently. To get round this Oracle 11g includes the DDL_LOCK_TIMEOUT parameter, which can be set at instance or session level using the ALTER SYSTEM and ALTER SESSION commands respectively.

The DDL_LOCK_TIMEOUT parameter indicates the number of seconds a DDL command should wait for the locks to become available before throwing the resource busy error message. The default value is zero.

runtimeCredentials

Do not use this field, it does not have any effect.
Set the DbDefClass with the prefix DelayedCredential instead

enableSqlParser

Oracle only

Enable use of the SQL Parser for scripts in the ddl_direct, sql, and sql_direct folders. For eligible databases and restrictions on usage, see Using SQL Parser.

hostname

The hostname/ip of the target database server.

port

The port number for JDBC connections to the target database server.

username

The database user name to use for the connection.

password

The password for the database user specified.  We strongly recommend to use runtime credentials because it is more secure than stored credentials (due to the possibility of the stored password being decoded).

integratedSecurity
SQL Server only

Enable Active Directory for SQL Server. When this is set, the username and password fields should be empty.

database
DB2 or Postgres only

The type of the database you wish to manage.

databaseName
SQL Server only

The name of the database you wish to manage.

instanceName
SQL Server only

The name of the instance you wish to manage.

applicationName
SQL Server only

The name of the database application you wish to manage.

azureClientId

Reference DB only

The Microsoft Azure Client ID associated with the account with which you wish to manage the Azure SQL Managed Instance.

azureTenantId

Reference DB only

The Microsoft Azure Tenant ID associated with the account for the Azure SQL Managed Instance you wish to manage.

azureClientSecret

Azure SQL Managed Instance only


Reference DB only

The Microsoft Azure Client Secret used to authenticate with the Azure REST.

Note

The REST API Client Secret is a sensitive credential that should be treated with the same caution as database login credentials. It is strongly recommended that this credential be provided at runtime in an environment variable and not stored in the GUI. For more information, see product documentation about Runtime Credentials.
