Hi,
Please can you share with me on how to retrieve database connection details using DFC? I only have the docbase name and user credentials to loginto it and no access to the content server host.
Regards
Gautam
That is what you need to have to access the Content server. You don't need access to the Database at all in DFC. What are you exactly trying to do ?

I just wanted to know the name of the database server my repository is configured with.
Hi Gautam ,
you can get the host name and the port from the tnsnames.ora file in the content server.
Tere you can find using the connection string. The connection you can get from the server.ini file.
the entry in tnsnames.ora looks like this.
ORCL = (DESCRIPTION = (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = host_name)(PORT = 1521)) (CONNECT_DATA = (SERVER = DEDICATED) (SERVICE_NAME = orcl) ) )
Hope it will help you.

Login to DA. It will be displayed on the home page
I am aware of the fact that the connection information is present in tnsnames.ora & server.ini files on the content server host - well, I dont have access to this machine at all.
I do not have a DA either.
I know that its not present in any of the docbase/server config objects.
Just trying to find out if there is a way using DFC?
So if I understand, you're asking us to help you work around the security protocols in place in your organization. Huuum, I like it
I'd assume that if you were a Documentum administrator, you'd have access to at least DA.
I'd be you, I'd ask the administrators/DBA for these informations or I'd ask to be granted the rights to use DA or get this kind of info
