Activates AI File Management for the automated management of AI files. Use this qualifier only when after-imaging is enabled.

Syntax

rfutil db-name -C aiarchiver enable

Parameters

db-name
Specifies the database you are using.

Notes

  • Issuing AIARCHIVER ENABLE has the following impact:
    • The database broker automatically starts the AI File Management daemon when the broker starts.
    • The AI Archive log file (database-name.archival.log) is created in the same directory as your database (.db) file.
    • The -aistall parameter is automatically set to enabled when the aiarchiver is enabled online. This is the expected behavior.
  • Your database must be offline when this command is issued.
  • Earlier versions of OpenEdge are not allowed to directly connect to your database when AI File Management is enabled. Clients may still connect using a network connection.

Operation of the AI File Management daemon is controlled through other AIARCHIVER qualifiers to RFUTIL, PROSERVE, and PROBKUP. See AI File Management utility for details.
