This section describes some additional steps that should be performed in order to make Omnidex fully operational. These steps should also be performed if Omnidex should cease to function properly.

After the Omnidex software is properly installed on the server, some additional steps should be preformed in order to make Omnidex fully operational. These steps should also be performed if Omnidex should cease to function properly.

 

REGTEST

REGTEST is an installation utility that should be run after the environment variables are set to verify that Omnidex has been properly licensed for the server and that the Omnidex registration and license database can be located by the Omnidex run-time software.

 

VERSIONS

VERSIONS is useful for verifying that the appropriate environment variables are set. It is also helpful for determining which Omnidex installation is being pointed to when multiple Omnidex versions are on the same server.

 

ODXSQL

ODXSQL is a very powerful server utility that can connect to any Omnidex Environment Catalog. Use OdxSQL to connect to the Order sample database included with the server software.

 

DSEDIT

DSEDIT is a Microsoft Windows based client/server utility that is used to create and maintain data source objects required by Omnidex Network Services for client connections to server databases. DSEDIT can also be used to perform light-weight retrievals against Omnidex Multi-Dimensional indexes. Its usage is purely limited to quick retrieval testing to ensure that the network and database connection circuit is operational.

 

ODXQUERY

ODXQUERY is a Microsoft Windows based client/server utility similar to OdxSQL. However, ODXQUERY is limited strictly to SQL testing and performance review. The extended query language functionality in not available with ODXQUERY.
