How the Database Search Path Is Assembled

The value of the database search path (DTDATABASESEARCHPATH) is created by assembling the following locations, listed in order of precedence:

• Locations specified using the DTSPUSERDATABASEHOSTS variable

• Locations derived from the DTSPUSERAPPHOSTS variable

• The default personal location: HomeDirectory/.dt/types

• The default location: /etc/dt/appconfig/types/language

• Locations specified using the DTSPSYSDATABASEHOSTS variable

• Locations derived from the DTSPSYSAPPHOSTS variable

• /usr/dt/appconfig/types/language

  The syntax:

  hostname:

  is expanded to specify the directory /etc/dt/appconfig/types on system hostname.
