Global Properties
- Global Properties are variables stored in the database that can be used throughout OpCon
- Properties are defined with a name and a value
Example
To use a Global Property in OpCon (Command Lines, Events, etc.) use the following notation:
[[<Global Property Name>]]
Example:
[[PATH-TO-SCRIPTS]]
OpCon will replace the Global Property with the given value at Runtime
The Global Properties screen is used to manage OpCon Instance Properties that apply to the entire environment
Troubleshooting Global Properties
Example
- Job Stays On Hold
- If SAM is unable to Resolve a Property, it will place the Job “On Hold” at Runtime
- Both the SAM and Critical Logs will report which Property has an error
Encrypted Global Property
The Value of a Global Property can be Encrypted by simply checking the Encrypted check box and saving the Global Property
This value is decrypted by LSAM at Runtime
There is no decrypt option
Good for things like passwords
