Warehouse Release 3.00.4500

11/19/2004

 The enhancement in the 3.00.4500 release are:

•  Network connections now have keep alive (SO_KEEPALIVE) set.
  This should help keep DataBridger Studio sessions active over a long period of time.  In prior release DataBridger Studio sessions left inactive over a long period of time (such as overnight) would stop working.
• On Windows systems, the Warehouse server may now be directed to listen to a specific port by indicating the port number in the service name when installing the service with INSTSRV. The default Warehouse port is 1610 and is installed using something like:
  
  INSTSRV Warehouse "C:\Program Files\Taurus\Warehouse\WhStart.exe"
  
  To indicate a specific port number, append _p#### to the service name, where #### is the port number you wish to use.  For example, if you wished to use port 11610, you would install the Warehouse service as follows:
  
  INSTSRV Warehouse_p11610 "C:\Program Files\Taurus\Warehouse\WhStart.exe"
  
  Port numbers are controlled by the Internet Assigned Numbers Authority.  See:
  
  http://www.iana.org/assignments/port-numbers
  
  NOTE:  This applies on to Microsoft Windows based systems. On other systems, the Warehouse server may be run with the -port ### parameter to specify a port. For example, on Unix : nohup /usr/local/Taurus/whii/whserv –port 20001 &
• For Warehouse servers, the listen() backlog has been changed to 20 from 1.  In earlier releases, this may have prevented Warehouse server connections opened at the same instant.
• The data type passed to Oracle when an ORACLE TIMESTAMP is in the FOR condition is now passed as a timestamp.  In prior releases the value was converted to a date before being passed to Oracle.  This could cause incorrect rows being selected.

Release 3.00.4500 is available now on all supported platforms.
