The Windows server program kfserverΒΆ
SYNTAX
kfserver [-dlnqs] [-c P] [-k mins] [-m N] [-o secs] [-p LCS] [-t mins]
Command line options
-c P 2 |
Start kfserver with the specified process priority class. The priority P must be a value between 1 and 5. |
-d |
Write to the log file $SCULPTOR/log/kfserver.log every time a client connects or disconnects. The file will grow very large if kfserver is run for a long time with this option. |
-k mins |
This option is accepted for backward compatibility, but is (and always was) ignored. |
-l |
This option is accepted for backward compatibility, but is ignored, since version 6.1.0. It was previously used to makes file and record locking details available to the remote monitor program. This mode can be changed while kfserver is not running by means of the Server Control window in the server management program. |
-m N 3 |
Start kfserver with the specified N retries when a mirror operations fails. By default the server does not retry any mirror operation (N=0) |
-n |
Creates a new, empty log file rather than appending to the existing one. |
-o secs 3 |
Sets the ODBC retry timeout, that forces a retry on a failed ODBC connection until the specified timeout (seconds) have passed. The default value is 0 meaning no retry operation is initiated. |
-p LCS 2 |
Start kfserver threads with the specified thread priority. Where L is listen thread priority, C are all the client threads priority and S is the thread priority when executing an sql command. The priority values must be a value between 1 and 5. |
-q 1 |
Turn off sql secure mode. The Sculptor security database is ignored for all sql executed though the SQL engine. |
-s |
Turn off secure mode. The Sculptor security database is ignored except for sql, see -q option. |
-t mins |
This option is accepted for backward compatibility, but is ignored. It was previously used to set the inactive timeout period. This is now done in the server management program kfsmonw (Server Control window). |

For a fuller explanation of some of these options see Sculptor Server Control -> Interactive Server Options
As soon as kfserver starts it runs a background thread to accept TCP/IP socket connections from Sculptor clients. A new thread is created and a separate port established for each connection, for the purpose of servicing requests from the connected client. The main thread creates and updates a scrolled window that displays the status of all connected clients.
kfserver can be started from the command line and stopped from its own menu option, or it can be started and stopped from the server monitor program kfsmonw
