ssii.ini
Summary | Stores the SuperSTAR catalogue settings for all SXV4s. | |
---|---|---|
Default Location | C:\ProgramData\STR\SuperCROSS\Catalogue |
[DBPath]
This section stores the list of datasets and tables in the Local Access section of the Catalogue, in the form:
<dataset_id>=<path>
The Local Access section can include datasets in the following format:
- SXV4
- SDMX
- SuperSTAR Archive File Format (.sar)
For example:
[DBPath]
RetailBanking=C:\ProgramData\STR\SuperCROSS\Databases\Retail Banking
peopledemo=C:\ProgramData\STR\SuperCROSS\Databases\people
The details of the local access datasets are also stored in an XML file (C:\ProgramData\STR\SuperCROSS\CatalogLocal.xml). A local access dataset will not appear in the Catalogue unless it is specified in both ssii.ini and CatalogLocal.xml.
[SuperAdminServers]
This section contains the name and address of the SuperADMIN server. This entry is automatically created when a SuperADMIN connection is made in SuperCROSS.
For example:
[SuperAdminServers]
SuperSTAR Database Server=inet:localhost:9230
[CORBA]
This section stores CORBA naming service settings.
Entry | Description |
---|---|
DBISServer | The SuperWEB1 server address. |
NamingService | Naming service location in the format inet:<host>:<port> |
For example:
[CORBA]
DBISServer=DBIS_server
NamingService=inet:super_server:9000
[CompatibilityCheck]
By default, if the version of SuperCROSS that you are using does not match the version of SuperSERVER that you are connecting to, SuperCROSS will display a compatibility warning:
If you wish to disable this warning message, you can do so by adding the following section to the ssii.ini file, setting the value of CompatibilityCheck
to 0
:
[CompatibilityCheck]
CompatibilityCheck=0
To enable the warning message again, either remove this section or set the value of CompatibilityCheck
to 1
.
[MandatoryFields]
This section can be used to force users to include certain fields in a table.
SuperCROSS will not allow a cross tabulation unless the table includes all the mandatory fields:
To specify mandatory fields, use the following format:
<dataset_id>=<list of mandatory fields enclosed in angle brackets>
The following example specifies that:
- For the Retail Banking dataset (ID: bank) the Gender and Marital Status fields are required.
- For the people dataset, the Occupation field is required.
[MandatoryFields]
bank=<Gender><Marital Status>
people=<Occupation>
[SingleSignOn]
Use this section to enable single sign on with Kerberos, by adding the following lines:
[SingleSignOn]
SSODLL=SSPI_Kerberos.dll
You must also configure an appropriate authentication service. See Single Sign On with Kerberos for more information.
[DefaultDBPath]
The default path for datasets that do not have a [DBPath]
set. This directory is used to store configuration files related to SXV4s loaded through SuperSERVER, including:
- The MetaInfo.ini file containing local descriptive metadata. See Local Descriptive Metadata - SuperCROSS for more information.
- The <id>_flag_records.xml file that is generated when users set up the available fields for the Flag Records feature. See Setup Flag Records - SuperCROSS for more information.
- The confid.ini file containing concealment rules that will be available in SuperCROSS. See Confidentiality - SuperCROSS for more information.
- The XML files used to configure SuperCROSS weightings. See Weightings - SuperCROSS for more information.
For example:
[DefaultDBPath]
DefaultDBPath=E:\SXV4s
This setting is not included in the configuration file by default. You can either add it to the file directly, or it can be configured in SuperCROSS under Edit > Options > Configuration > SXV4 and Local Access > SXV4 Default DBPath.
