There are a number of properties that can be configured to determine how DataPA interacts with a specific AppServer. These are detailed below:

1)

Before DataPA can connect to a specific AppServer, you must configure the DataPA procedure library. Click here for Progress users to Version 10.x and here for Openedge 11 Users for more details.

2)

To share a single setup amongst many client machines running DataPA, you may wish to distribute the setup files from the AppServer. Click here for more details.

3)

To prevent users amending the setup you give them you can ensure they can only access the AppServer using a setup distributed from the server. Click here for Progress users to Version 10.x and here for Openedge 11 Users for more details.

4)

To prevent users from running complex queries that slow down the server, you can set a server time-out period. Click here for Progress users to Version 10.x and here for Openedge 11 Users for more details.
