DB2 Database Step Settings

...

Datical DB GUIDescription
Connection Settings
HostnameHostname or IP address for the database.
Port50000 by default. 
DatabaseDatabase name
REORG:
  •  Automatically Perform with each Deploy

Perform a DB2 reorg operation when changes are deployed to this step. The operation reclaims unused space. 

z/OS:

  •  Connection targets DB2 for z/OS

Select if this is a DB2 system running on z/OS

Database Credentials
UsernameService name used by Datical to access the managed database for the step. 
PasswordPassword for the service name.  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).
Optional Information
ContextsAffects where changesets are deployed.
LabelsDefines labels to be applied to changesets deployed to this step. 
Schema NameSchema name to use. Requires Database property. 
CLPPlus Timeout (seconds)Time to wait for a CLPPlus script to complete.  We recommend setting a value for this for all of your REF dbDefs, but only your REF dbDefs.

Storage Settings:

  •  Include Table and Index Storage Information
Include information about where and how the database is stored. 
Project Creation Settings
Baseline
  •  Create Baseline Changelog - select to create a baseline changelog from a snapshot of the schema. All objects currently in the database are captured and represented in the changelog. 
StoredLogic
  •  Externalize Stored Logic (Procedures, Package, Functions) - select to save stored logic objects outside of the changelog.

  • LDAP - service name defined on an LDAP server. The LDAP server is one specified in an ldap.ora file

Accelerator:

  •  Enable Accelerator for Oracle (Improves PerformanceImproved performance in some environments)
Off by default. Datical provides provided an optional accelerator that compresses compressed results before sending them from the database over the network and then decompresses decompressed them when they are received.  The accelerator/compression driver was only available with versions 7.15 or lower.  It has been deprecated with versions 7.16 and higher.
Database Credentials
UsernameService name used by Datical to access the managed database for the step.

Storage Settings

  •  Include Table and Index Storage Information

Include the storage clause information for XML changesets. The storage clause will be derived based upon the settings of the RefDB.  Storage information includes table and index partition settings.  You must include table and index storage information when packaging partitioned objects using the DDL or CONVERT package method.

Project Creation Settings
