Data Management Console

Topics:

The following section provides descriptions of new features for the Data Management Console (DMC).

Downloading Files

A new Download option is available for all files on Application tree in the Data Management Console and Web Console. When a user downloads files, they are saved in the Downloads folder of their computer. In Windows, this location is C:\users\username\Downloads, by default.

Improvements in Column Name Display Strategy

When the strategy is something other than Name, the header label now shows, for example Display Name (Title). This ensures that the column name is clearly displayed. In addition, the field Name can now be displayed even when the display strategy is not Name.

Improvements to Text Editor

When using the Text Editor in the DataMigrator Console with a stored procedure (focexec) that has one more lines selected, new shortcut menu options allow for commenting or uncommenting multiples lines at once. The options are Comment Selection or Uncomment Selection.

Kerberos and Single Sign-On From DMC

A new Single Sign-On capability is now available when connecting from the Data Management Console to a DataMigrator or WebFOCUS Reporting Server on Linux with Kerberos enabled.

The IWA (Integrated Windows Authentication) that is available on the Server Node Configuration dialog box has been replaced with two new options: NTLM (NT Lan Manager) for Windows and Kerberos for use with Linux. When you select either of these options, you do not need to enter a user ID and password. The user ID and password you used to log in to Windows is used.

Once you connect to the DMC, a message appears in the console log indicating the authentication method and user ID that was used.

Using Find in Properties Panes

In the Data Management Console, you can right-click the Properties pane for a synonym or a flow and use the new Find option in the shortcut menu to search for text in the Attributes column.
