Table 5. Connection Properties for the Progress OpenEdge Driver
Property Description
AlternateServers
Default: No default
Data type: String
A comma-separated list of alternate database servers that the driver will try to
connect to if the primary database server is unavailable. The value of this
property is a string that specifies each alternate server. This string has the
format:
(servername1[:port1][;property=value],servername2[:port2][;property=value],...)
The server name is required for each alternate server entry. Port number and
connection properties (property=value) are optional for each alternate server
entry. If the port is unspecified, the port number of the primary server is used.
The driver only allows one optional property, DatabaseName. For example:
jdbc:datadirect:openedge://server1:4100;
DatabaseName=TEST;User=test;Password=secret
AlternateServers=(server2:4100;DatabaseName=TEST2,
server3:4100;DatabaseName=TEST3)
contains alternate server entries for server2 and server3. The alternate server
entries contain the optional DatabaseName property.
