SPOOL - Enable Export Flow Control
Normally, the Spooling Export process sends data as quickly as the network can receive the data. If
a network link is not a LAN link, or if the destination node is a slower computer, this option may
be necessary to prevent the link from experiencing load related failures. This parameter takes effect
when Spooling Exporting is started.
Default = N
SHADOW - Direction (N/E/I/B)
This parameter describes the direction that files are shadowed relative to this node. Valid values
are:
Value Description
N
None
E
Export only
I
Import only
B
Both import and export
When defining the local node this parameter is typically set to N, unless it is desired to shadow files
back to the same node, in which case, this parameter should be set to B.
Default = N
SHADOW - Export queue size
This parameter is used to set the limit of the export queue files built by NetBase in blocks. Note that
since the queue files are message files (variable length), the limit does not necessarily correspond to
the actual number of shadow transactions queued. Each block will hold 16K bytes which is
approximately 50 transactions.
Default = 3172
SHADOW - Import queue size
This parameter is used to set the limit of the import queue files built by NetBase in 16K blocks.
Default = 3172
