Control-M Mirror Database Owner (DBO)

Defines the name of the Control‑M Mirror database owner. This name is used by Control‑M when accessing the mirror database. When building a new mirror database, the initialization script creates this user on the database server.

After using this utility, enter the DBO password to access the Control-M/Server database.

Default: ctrlm

Database Owner Password

Defines the password for the Control‑M/Server Mirror database owner (6 to 30 characters, alphanumeric). The characters you enter do not echo for security reasons. Control‑M processes and utilities use the password to access the mirror database.

Database Size

Defines the amount of space (in MB) to allocate for the data portion of the Control‑M/Server Mirror database.

This value is taken from the current size of the primary database and should not be modified. Verify that the secondary database server can host a database of this size and the value is the same as the primary database.

Database Name

Defines the name for the Control‑M/Server Mirror database. This name must be unique within the Sybase SQL server.

• When building a new mirror database, the initialization script creates this database on the database server.
• When copying to an existing database, this database must already be defined on the database server.

Default: ctrlm_ux

Sybase Interface Directory

Defines the full path to the Sybase interfaces file on the primary system. The value is displayed and is modified by changing the value of the installed Sybase root directory parameter.

Mirror Sybase Host Name

(Copying only) Defines the name of the host computer for the mirror Sybase Database server.

Mirror Sybase Port Number

(Copying only) Defines the communications port where the secondary database server listens for queries.

If you use a Control-M dedicated database SQL Server for the mirror database, the Port Number can be found in the QUERY_SPN field in the <controlm_owner>/install/install_defs file.
