Other Database Parameters	Case Sensitive with parameters separated by a semicolon if more than one defined. The correct format is: currentSQLID=xxxxxxxx, where xxxxxxxx is the implicit qualifier of all table, view, alias, and index names specified in dynamic SQL statements. NOTE: An alternative to the mainframe currentSQLID is to create an alias to all the DB2 PeopleSoft Staging tables accessed through Stat. An example of this can be found in the comments found at the end of the DB2 mainframe staging script StageDB2-ZOS-855.sql.
PS Config File	The path and name of the PeopleSoft configuration file, if any, that Stat imports when executing CLI functionality for this environment.

Testing Environment Connections

After defining an environment in the maintenance table, you can make sure that you have entered all the information correctly by clicking Test Connection. This makes Stat establish a connection to the newly defined environment. If successful, Stat immediately disconnects from the environment and displays a “Connection Successful” message. If Stat is unable to connect, it displays an error message.

You can also test connections to multiple databases simultaneously. To test multiple connections, hold the <Ctrl> or <Shift> keys and select the databases you want to test. Then click Test Selected. Stat attempts to establish a connection to each database and reports its results in the Database Test Connect window

Note that when you test a single environment, Stat does not validate the values specified in the fields Host Name, Service Name, or DB Listener Port. If any of these fields are not configured properly, the Stat Central Agent will log an error when the user attempts to migrate an object to or from the environment. When you test multiple connections, however, Stat does test both client and agent connections, including Host Name, Service Name, DB Listener Port or (in the case of Oracle-based environments) TNS Entry.


	NOTE: When testing environment connections in the Stat Web Client, Stat Web attempts to connect using the Host Name, DB Listener Port, Service Name, or the TNS Entry values specified in the Stat maintenance tables for each particular environment. If there is no TNS Entry value specified for an environment, it uses the Host/Port/Service Name values. If a TNS Entry value is specified, it uses that value and disregards the others.
