Specifying Values in the Component Configuration File

Oracle Network Manager creates lines in the configuration files that look similar to this:

TRACE_LEVEL_CLIENT = ADMIN

TRACE_FILE_CLIENT = CTRACE

Note: There are some parameters in SQLNET.ORA that can be entered and modified through the SQLNET.ORA Editor as well as through Oracle Network Manager. Other parameters can be added or changed only by editing the SQLNET.ORA file with a text editor. These include all parameters for the server, and trace parameters for the NAMESCTL utility.

The following rules govern how you specify parameters in the component configuration files:

• Only parameters and comments should appear in the component configuration file.

• If the configuration file omits a parameter, then the parameter's default value is in effect.

• Parameters can be specified in any order.

• Parameter names are shown in this appendix and this guide in uppercase for readability. Case (upper or lower) is only significant in values if case is significant on the host operating system. Refer to your operating system-specific documentation if you require more information.

• A pound sign (#) is used to start each line that contains a comment.

• Double quotes can surround parameter values, such as filenames. This syntax option is useful for values that contain special characters.
