PeopleSoft Data Mover Operating Modes

Operating modes determine how you are connected to the database. PeopleSoft Data Mover operating modes are:

• Regular mode.

  Most of the time, you use regular mode. To sign in to regular mode, enter your PeopleSoft user ID and password during sign-in. In regular mode, all commands are valid.

• Bootstrap mode.

  In bootstrap mode, you use a database access ID and password when signing in. Typically, you use bootstrap mode for database loading, because no PeopleSoft security tables are established yet. You also use bootstrap mode for running some security commands, such as ENCRYPT_PASSWORD.

  Note:

  In bootstrap mode, the following script commands are not valid: EXPORT and RENAME.
