A dbenv element causes an IceGrid node to generate Freeze configuration properties for the server or service in which it is defined. The IceGrid node also creates a directory for the Berkeley DB database environment if needed.
This element may contain dbproperty elements.This element may only appear as a child of a server or service element.
The following attributes are supported:
Attribute | Description | Required |
|---|---|---|
| Specifies the directory to use as the database environment. If not defined, a sub-directory in the node's data directory is used. | No |
| The name of the Berkeley DB database environment. | Yes |
The values of the name and home attributes are used to define the Freeze.DbEnv.env-name.DbHome property as shown below:
Freeze.DbEnv.name.DbHome=home
An optional nested description element provides free-form descriptive text.
Here is an example to demonstrate the use of this element:
<dbenv name="MyEnv" home="/opt/data/db"> <description>A description of the Freeze/BDB database environment.</description> ... </dbenv>
