Configuring gateways

Configuration files define the environment in which gateways operate and how they map data between ObjectServer tables and target databases or applications. Most gateways use multiple configuration files. Some gateways are configured using a single configuration file.

Most gateways, including ObjectServer gateways, are configured using a properties file, a map definition file, a startup command file, and a table replication definition file.gateway_name.props), in conjunction with a map definition file (gateway_name.map), a startup command file (gateway_name.startup.cmd), and a table replication definition file (gateway_name.tblrep.def).
