process_attributes

The process_attributes table stores process attribute definitions, which provide configuration information for iProcess Engine server processes.

Structure

The process_attributes table is structured as follows:

TABLE process_attributes (
logical_machine_id
INTEGER
NOT NULL,
logical_process_name
VARCHAR(10)
NOT NULL,
logical_process_instance
INTEGER
NOT NULL,
attribute_name
VARCHAR(50)
NOT NULL,
attribute_value
VARCHAR(1024)
NOT NULL,
attribute_type
VARCHAR(2)
NOT NULL)

Column

Description

logical_machine_id

ID of the server where the process instance that this attribute applies to is running, as defined in the node_cluster table.

A value of 0 means that this attribute applies to all servers that are part of this node.

logical_process_name

Logical name of the process that this attribute applies to.

A value of ALL means that this attribute applies to all processes on the indicated server.

Note: See "Administering iProcess Engine Server Processes" in TIBCO iProcess Engine Administrator's Guide for a list of logical process names.

logical_process_
instance

ID of the process instance that this attribute applies to, as defined in the process_config table.

A value of 0 means that this attribute applies to all instances of the indicated process.

attribute_name

Name of this process attribute.

Note: See "Administering Process Attributes" in TIBCO iProcess Engine Administrator's Guide for a list of the available process attributes.

attribute_values

Value of this process attribute.

Note: See "Administering Process Attributes" in TIBCO iProcess Engine Administrator's Guide for a list of the valid values for each process attributes.

attribute_type

Type of this process attribute: either I (Integer), C (Character) or S (String).

Note: All attribute_values are stored as strings in this table. This value determines how the value is returned to the SWDIR\bin\swadm interface.

When...

added

a new process attribute definition is added, either at installation or by using the SWDIR\util\swadm utility.

updated

a process attribute definition is updated, using the SWDIR\util\swadm utility.

deleted

a process attribute definition is deleted, using the SWDIR\util\swadm utility.

Note 

This table can contain orphan rows in which data can exist that does not apply to any process currently being used.
