Searching the Help
To search for information in the Help, type a word or phrase in the Search box. When you enter a group of words, OR is inferred. You can use Boolean operators to refine your search.
Results returned are case insensitive. However, results ranking takes case into account and assigns higher scores to case matches. Therefore, a search for "cats" followed by a search for "Cats" would return the same number of Help topics, but the order in which the topics are listed would be different.
Words and Phrases
| Search for | Example | Results |
|---|---|---|
| A single word | cat
|
Topics that contain the word "cat". You will also find its grammatical variations, such as "cats". |
|
A phrase. You can specify that the search results contain a specific phrase. |
"cat food" (quotation marks) |
Topics that contain the literal phrase "cat food" and all its grammatical variations. Without the quotation marks, the query is equivalent to specifying an OR operator, which finds topics with one of the individual words instead of the phrase. |
Using Boolean Operators
| Search for | Operator | Example |
|---|---|---|
|
Two or more words in the same topic |
|
|
| Either word in a topic |
|
|
| Topics that do not contain a specific word or phrase |
|
|
| Topics that contain one string and do not contain another | ^ (caret) |
cat ^ mouse
|
| A combination of search types | ( ) parentheses |

Parameter: sqlddldirectory
Startup parameters change the behavior of the Service Manager server. You can always set a startup parameter from the server's operating system command prompt.
Parameter
sqlddldirectory
Description
This parameter defines the path where you want the Service Manager server to save database definition language (DDL) files with every change to a database dictionary record. You can enable DDL logging to keep a record of all your database dictionary changes or as a means to deliver proposed changes to an RDBMS administrator who will actually implement the changes. This parameter requires the use of the sqlddllogging parameter to enable the creation of DDL files.
Valid if set from
Server's operating system command prompt
Initialization file (sm.ini)
Requires restart of the Service Manager server?
Yes
Default value
Service Manager server installation folder\RUN
Possible values
Path to DDL files relative to the server's RUN directory
Example usage
Command line: sm -sqlddllogging:1 -sqlddldirectory:ddl
Initialization file:
sqlddllogging:1 sqlddldirectory:ddl
