This chapter describes the main window for the Optim™ Configuration program and certain general configuration functions. The principal configuration tasks are described in the following chapters.
The Optim solution supports several database management systems. Terms that are used in a configuration dialog reflect the DBMS for the database that is being configured. For example, for an Oracle database, a configuration dialog might refer to the "Packages" used to access database tables. However, for a Sybase ASE or SQL Server database, the same dialog refers to "Procedures," and for a DB2® database it refers to "Plans." Varying terms are noted in the description of a dialog.
