Valid for
Extract, Replicat
Description
Use LOGON
to run Extract or Replicat under an ID different from the process that starts it (normally Manager). Extract and Replicat normally inherit the user ID of the Manager process. This parameter provides password encryption options.
You must place the LOGON
parameter near the top of your parameter file so that all other files are created with the correct ownership. For example, a DISCARDFILE
may be created with the incorrect user ID and password, causing problems when Extract and/or Replicat try to start up.
Either place the entire LOGON
parameter statement on one line, or use an ampersand (&
) continuation to split the statement into two or more lines.
If Manager is running under SUPER.SUPER
authority, only the user_id
portion of this parameter is necessary (the comma is still required). If password
is specified, it is not echoed in the report file.
