IMCADMIN

The IMCADMIN environment variable supports the imcadmin administrative tool by specifying the name of a database server through which imcadmin can connect to MaxConnect. For imcadmin to operate correctly, you must set IMCADMIN before you use an IBM Informix product.

>>-setenv--IMCADMIN--dbservername------------------------------><
 

dbservername

is the name of a database server.

Here dbservername must be listed in the sqlhosts file on the computer where the MaxConnect runs. MaxConnect uses this setting to obtain the following connectivity information from the sqlhosts file:

• Where the administrative listener port must be established
• The network protocol that the specified database server uses
• The host name of the system where the specified database server resides

You cannot use the imcadmin tool unless IMCADMIN is set to a valid database server name.

For more information about using IMCADMIN, refer to IBM Informix: MaxConnect User's Guide.
