No installation is required, just start the server...
DEFAULT SETUP:
• User name & password:
The server is maintained by the 'System Administrator', who has all privileges and access rights. The user name of the system administrator for this server is:
Administrator
Password is blank. To login to the server, use the name 'administrator' (user names are not case-sensitive) and no password.
To set the password (for example to xxx), login (on the server console choose 'New Session' from the 'Session' menu), and enter:
open database master;
alter password "xxx";
Now hit the ENTER key (on the numeric keypad), or type CMD-R, or select 'RUN' from Session menu.
If the administrator should have another name, then you need to add a new user to the master database, and grant the user SA privileges. Check the reference manual for details on the commands 'ADD USER', and 'GRANT'.
• The server name:
The server has the name 'PrimeServer'. If you wish to run more than one server you will need to change the server's name.
To change the server's name you set a system parameter in the master database. After login, type the following:
open database master;
set variable dataservername = "MyNewName";
Hit ENTER, type CMD-R, or select 'RUN' from Session menu.
Note that some older client applications have problems if you put spaces in the server name.
CHECK THE SERVER STATUS:
A useful command to be used in the server console is '#status'. Login to the server in a new session, and type:
#status
and hit ENTER. Current settings for the most import system parameters are displayed. Use
#help
to print a list of server console commands. Besides this, you may use all DAL commands, as described in the reference manual.
USING SERVER SCRIPTS:
You will find some useful DAL scripts in the 'Scripts' folder in the 'Setup' folder in this directory. Double-click on a script to open it in the server.
Select a target session in the bottom-left corner of the script edit window, and then choose 'Run' from the 'Session' menu.
