TIBCO Accelerator Parameters

You must supply the TIBCO Accelerator transfer parameters when you use the Accelerator (ACC) technology to do a transfer.

Parameter (Alternate Specification) Description
Accelerate (ACC) Defines whether to conduct file transfers using Accelerator technology.
The valid values are:
  • N: does not use the Accelerator technology for a transfer.
  • Y: forces a transfer to be conducted using Accelerator technology, so you can speed up data transfer over IP networks with high latency.
ACCCompression (ACCC) Defines whether to compress the data transferred through Accelerator.
The valid values are:
  • N: no compression.
  • Y|Best: best balance between speed and compression quality.
  • Default: highest compression with slightly lower speed.
  • Fast: lower compression but with fast speed.
Note: Accelerator uses a proprietary compression compatible with ZLIB compression.
ACCEncryption (ACCE) Defines whether to encrypt the data transferred through Accelerator.

The encryption type is 256-bit Blowfish encryption. The valid values are N or Y.

ACCHost (ACCH) Defines the IP address or host name of Accelerator server.
The valid values are N, hostname, or IP _address.
Note: A host value defined on the command line or in a transfer template overrides the ACCHost value configured in config.txt file. If the value defined on the command line or in a transfer template is N, and you have Accelerate set to Y, the value configured for ACCHost in config.txt file is used.

For more information, see Configuration Parameters.

ACCMaxSpeed (ACCMAX) Defines the maximum speed, in kilobytes per second, for transfers through Accelerator.

You can set this parameter on the command line or in a transfer template. The valid values are from 256 to 1000000.

For more information, see Transfers Using Templates.

ACCPort Defines the port number on which the platform server listens for transfers using the Accelerator technology.

The valid values are N or port_number. Default value is 9099.

Note: A port number defined on the command line or in a transfer template overrides the ACCPort value configured in config.txt file. If the value defined on the command line or in a transfer template is N and you have Accelerate set to Y, the value configured for ACCPort in config.txt file is used.

For more information, see Transfers Using Templates and Configuration Parameters.

ACCProtocol (ACCP) Defines the transmission protocol for file transfers through Accelerator server.

The valid values are:

  • TCP: Transmission Control Protocol
  • UDP: Accelerator server enhanced version of User Datagram Protocol
  • PDP: Parallel Delivery Protocol
