Multiple connections for Actuate report.
INTRODUCTION:
=============
This Kbase explains how to do multiple connections from Progress
to Actuate.
WHY YOU NEED TO KNOW THIS:
===========================
There is a limit in Progress that only allows 40 tokens per
connection line. That narrows a normal connection including
-db -S -H -N -P -U down to 3 connections (12 tokens per db).
Actuate don't have multiple lines in the connect statement!.
PROCEDURAL APPROACH:
====================
Normally in Progress enviroment you just replace the connection
statement with a -pf pf-file.pf and make multiple connections on
multiple lines in the file.
Actuate don't support a single -pf parameter in the database-list.
However, if you use -db as first parameter in the database-list in
the Progress connection in Actuate devwb, you can then use the -pf
and a parameter file for the rest of the parameters (-S -H -N -P -U).
That brings the number of tokens per db down to 4 which means that
the max number of connections is 10 instead of 3.
This means one .pf for each database.
