SERVER-OPERATING-MODE attribute

(AppServer only; PAS for OE only)

Returns the operating mode of the current Pacific Application Server or AppServer session.

Data type:

CHARACTER

Access:

Read-only

Applies to:

SESSION system handle

This attribute is valid only if the REMOTE attribute is TRUE.

The possible values for this attribute when used with the AppServer include:

"State-reset"

"State-aware"

"Stateless"

"State-free"

This is the value of the operatingMode property set for this AppServer in the ubroker.properties file. For information on how to configure the operating mode for an AppServer instance, see OpenEdge Application Server: Administration.

The possible values for this attribute when used with the Pacific Application Server include:

"Session-managed"

"Session-free"

Because an instance of the Pacific Application Server can run sessions in both modes simultaneously, the operating mode is not set in a properties file. The operating mode is specified through a parameter on the CONNECT( ) method on the client. For more information, see Pacific Application Server for OpenEdge: Introducing PAS for OpenEdge.
