Environment variables
The solidDB environment variables and their purposes are described in the following table:
 
Environment variable
Purpose
Example
SOLAPPINFO
Identifies applications that run in the same computer and under the same user name (for the purposes of tracing and management).
SOLAPPINFO is set on the client computer. The ADMIN COMMAND 'userlist' returns the value of SOLAPPINFO on the server side. The value of SOLAPPINFO must not contain blanks.
Note In JDBC environments, SOLAPPINFO can be set with the connection property solid_appinfo.
Alternatively, the following Java command line can be used to pass the value of the environmental variable to the driver:
java ‑Dsolid_appinfo=%SOLAPPINFO% java_program_name
export SOLAPPINFO=testapp
SOLIDDIR
Defines the working directory for the solidDB server, that contains the solid.ini and license files for example.
export SOLIDDIR=/home/soliddb/settings/
SOLSMASTART
Forces the start address space for the SMA server to the solidDB default
The value depends on the operating system, for more details, see Cannot map shared memory area.
export SOLSMASTART=0x2c0000000000
SOLTRACE
Turns on the Network trace facility, overriding the Com.Trace setting in the solid.ini file
export SOLTRACE=yes
SOLTRACEFILE
Defines the name and location of the file where trace information is output, overriding the Com.TraceFile setting in the solid.ini file
Defining the SOLTRACEFILE environment variable automatically turns on the Network trace facility.
export SOLTRACEFILE=/home/soliddb/settings/trace.out
