CF Data Source Name
|
The data source name (DSN) that ColdFusion
uses to connect to the data source.
|
Database File
|
The file that contains the database.
|
Description
|
(Optional) A description for this connection.
|
ColdFusion User name
|
The user name that ColdFusion passes to
the JDBC driver to connect to the data source if a ColdFusion application does
not supply a user name (for example, in a cfquery tag).
|
ColdFusion Password
|
The password that ColdFusion passes to the
JDBC driver to connect to the data source if a ColdFusion application does
not supply a password (for example, in a cfquery tag).
|
Page Timeout
|
The time (in tenths of a second) before
a request for a ColdFusion page times out.
|
Max Buffer Size
|
The size of the internal buffer, in kilobytes,
used by Microsoft Access to transfer data to and from the disk.
Can be any integer value divisible by 256.
|
Connection String
|
A field that passes database-specific parameters,
such as login credentials, to the data source.
|
Limit Connections
|
Specifies whether ColdFusion limits the
number of database connections for the data source. If you enable
this option, use the Restrict Connections To field to specify the
maximum.
|
Restrict Connections To
|
Specifies the maximum number of database
connections for the data source. To use this restriction, enable
the Limit Connections option.
|
Maintain Connections
|
ColdFusion establishes a connection to a
data source for every operation that requires one. Enable this option
to improve performance by caching the data source connection.
|
Timeout (min)
|
The number of minutes that ColdFusion MX
maintains an unused connection before destroying it.
|
Interval (min)
|
The time (in minutes) that the server waits
between cycles to check for expired data source connections to close.
|
Disable Connections
|
If selected, suspends all client connections.
|
Login Timeout (sec)
|
The number of seconds before ColdFusion
times out the data source connection login attempt.
|
CLOB
|
Select to return the entire contents of
any CLOB/Text columns in the database for this data source. If not
selected, ColdFusion retrieves the number of characters specified
in the Long Text Buffer setting.
|
BLOB
|
Select to return the entire contents of
any BLOB/Image columns in the database for this data source. If
not selected, ColdFusion retrieves the number of characters specified
in the BLOB Buffer setting.
|
LongText Buffer
|
The default buffer size, used if the CLOB
option is not selected. The default value is 64000 bytes.
|
BLOB Buffer
|
The default buffer size, used if the BLOB
option is not selected. The default value is 64000 bytes.
|
Allowed SQL
|
The SQL operations that can interact with
the current data source.
|
Validation query
|
Called when a connection from the pool is
resued. This can slow query response time because an additional
query is generated. Specify the validation query just before restarting
the database to verify all connections, but remove the validation
query after restarting the database to avoid any performance loss.
