GNA – General Connection Parameters

GNA General Connection Parameters

Overview

In the General System Parameters form, you are presented with database details about the currently selected connection key, configuration parameters for controlling how users access the application, and synchronization and refresh parameters for mobile installations.

General Connection Parameters

Database Default Server Type group

In the Database Default Server Type group (A) you will see the database server type of the currently selected connection key.

NOTEThis area is informational and cannot be modified.

Specifying Connection Key Source Folder at Startup

As a time saver users starting up GNA can specify a connection key source folder; i.e. a location for the list of Connection Keys. This feature is useful in multiple database environments where users need to frequently switch between databases. By default GNA will maintain a lock on the location of the last selected Connection Key. The file that the GNA will obtain its list of connection keys from is (File: GovernDABConfig.xml)

Database Connection Key parameters

The list of Connection Keys are obtained from the GovernDABConfig.xml file. If an administrator would like to provide an alternate GovernDABConfig.xml file containing Connection Keys, this information can be specified.

Definition File Folder: Type in a new path to the connection keys definition folder, i.e. location of the GovernDABConfig.xml file, or click “…” to browse for a folder.

Organization Parameters

In the Govern New Administration (GNA), it is possible to modify the parameters that were entered at installation. In the Organization Parameters group, you can modify the Organization name.

Organization Name: Enter your organization name. This is the name that appears in the GovernNetConfig.xml document.

User Name Prefix: The User Name Prefix field is used to enter a text string that is added to the beginning of the User ID. This feature allows for backwards compatibility with Govern for Windows. The specified prefix is concatenated with the user name, encrypted, and stored. Since it is appended to the password after a user enters their assigned password, they are not aware of it. The use of this method means that users will never see their real database UserID.

User Name Prefix: If required, enter a prefix into this optional field.

To specify an Organization Name and a User Name prefix…

  1. Select System Parameters > General Installation Parameters…
  2. In the Organization Parameters group, enter an Organization name, and a user name prefix.
  3. Click Save to confirm your changes.

The user must explicitly enable editing for each parcel: When selected the user must click on the Edit icon in the Govern.NET Dataset Treeview before editing a record. By default this option is disabled.

NOTE: This option is designed to minimize errors when selecting a record to edit in Govern. When a record is selected in the Dataset Treeview, a conscious effort must be made to click the Click to Edit icon a second time, and unlock the record for editing.

Mobile Device Parameters

Mobile Device Connection Check Trigger (in ms): After installing a mobile deployment, one of its functions is to continually check the connection to the master database, and compare and update changes to the data.

Connection Check Trigger (in ms): The Connection Check Trigger value determines the length of the interval, in milliseconds, between each check to verify the availability of the connection to the main database. The default value is 1000 milliseconds.

Synchronization Interval (in ms): The value in this field is the interval that will be used to force a synchronization of data between the mobile database and the main system database when Govern.NET’s automatic synchronization option is selected. This option is set on the mobile devices Govern.NET install.

NOTE: For details about Mobile Device configuration, refer to the Govern Mobile user guide.
