Configuration Properties
SQLFire uses JDBC connection properties, connection boot properties, and Java system properties to configure SQLFire
members and connections.
• Property Types on page 319
• Property Prefixes on page 320
• Using Non-ASCII Strings in SQLFire Property Files on page 320
• List of Property Names on page 320
• Configuration Property Reference on page 323
Property Types
SQLFire configuration properties are divided into the following property types:
• Connection properties. Connection properties configure the features of a SQLFire member or a SQLFire client
connection when you start or connect to a SQLFire member. You can define connection properties directly in the
JDBC connection URL (or in the "connect" command in an interactive sqlf session). You can also define connection
properties in the sqlfire.properties file or as Java system properties. For example, use
-J-Dproperty_name=property_value when you execute a sqlf utility. Or, use the JAVA_ARGS environment variable
to define a Java system property for an interactive sqlf session (JAVA_ARGS="-Dproperty_name=property_value").
Note: You must add a prefix to certain connection property names in order to specify those properties in
sqlfire.properties or as Java system properties. See Property Prefixes on page 320.
Connection properties can be further categorized as either boot properties or client properties:
• Boot properties. A boot connection property configures features of a SQLFire member, and can only be applied
with the first connection that starts a SQLFire member. You can specify boot properties when you start a SQLFire
member using the FabricServer API or sqlf command, when you make the first connection to an embedded SQLFire
member with the JDBC embedded driver, or when you use the connect peer command from an interactive
sqlf session to start a peer client. Boot properties have no effect when they are specified on connections to a
member after the member has started. Boot properties have no effect when they are specified on a thin client
connection.
• For example, the server-groups property configures a data store's server groups when the data store boots. If you
specify server-groups on any subsequent connection to the data store, the server group configuration is not
changed.
• Client properties. A client connection property configures features of the client connection itself, and can be used
with the JDBC thin client drive (for example, using a JDBC thin client connection URL or the connect client
command from an interactive sqlf session).
•
System properties. Certain SQLFire configuration properties must be specified either in the sqlfire.properties
file or as Java system properties (using -J-Dproperty_name=property_value with a sqlf utility, or setting
