TDM DB - General Parameters

The TDM DB tdm_general_parameters table holds the name of each parameter (param_name) and its value (param_value). The following categories of parameters are populated in this table:

TDM Clean-Up Parameters

The clean-up parameters are automatically created in tdm_general_parameters by TDM DB creation scripts:

  • The cleanup_retention_period defines the number of months of the retention period of Inactive records. The clean-up process deletes inactive records that are older than the retention period.

LUI Separator Parameters

  • To create different LUIs per environment and data version, the TDM concatenates additional identifiers to each IID: environment name (for all tasks), and version identifier for Data Versioning tasks. By default, the LUI's parts are separated by an underscore. For example: ENV1_45773. However, if the source entity ID contains an underscore, another separator must be set on the LUI.

    • For example, to enable the TDM process to parse the LUI correctly and to get the correct Customer ID, if the source Customer ID is 123_4, the LUI separator must not be an underscore.
  • The param_name of the LUI separator is iid_separator.

  • The param_value must be populated by the String set as a separator.

    Note that the iid_separator setting impacts all LUs in the project.

    Example:

    Insert the following record to tdm_general_parameters to set the separator to @ :

  insert into tdm_general_parameters (param_name, param_value) values ('iid_separator', '@');

The LUI of Customer 123_4 and environment ENV1 is ENV1@123_4.

Reservation Period Parameter

An admin user of the environment's owner can reserve entities for an unlimited period. However, a tester user is limited and can only set a retention period that does not exceed the maximum retention period, defined in the TDM DB.

The maximum number of days for the entity reservation is set in the MAX_RESERVATION_DAYS_FOR_TESTER parameter.

TDM GUI General Parameters

  • The TDM GUI param_name is tdm_gui_params. The value of this parameter includes a list of the following parameters:

    • maxRetentionPeriod: maximum number days when setting a retention period on extract tasks. Default value is 90 days.
    • defaultPeriod: default retention period on extract tasks. Default value is 5 days ("unit":"Days","value":5).
    • permissionGroups: list of the TDM permission groups. The following options are currently supported: admin,owner, and tester.
    • TDM Version
