Retrieve primary key mode

You can run a script to verify whether Service Manager has the primary key feature enabled.

Application developers can retrieve primary key mode information by using the sysinfo.get("PKMode") RAD function.  To do this, use the following example:

1. Log in to SMA-SM as an administrator.

2. Navigate to Script Library.

3. Create a new script named test.

4. Copy the following code into the text box.

   var retValue;
   retValue = system.functions.sysinfo_get ("PKMode" );
   print ( "Current value of PKMode is " + retValue );
   

5. Run the script.

If the primary key feature is enabled, the following message appears in the Messages pane of the SM client:

Current value of PKMode is true
