Overview

Initialization parameters for JADE modules are grouped in categories. JADE applications and utilities provide the option to include JADE client parameters in an application-defined initialization file. This is done by the application when it first initializes the JADE Object Manager, by passing the directory and file name of the application-defined initialization file in the jomInitialize Application Programming Interface (API) call.

For more details, see "Initializing a Node" under "JADE Application Programming Interface (API)", in Chapter 3 of your JADE Object Manager Guide.

In a multiple-environment, each database can have its own unique JADE initialization file and configuration parameters. For details, see "Installing Multiple JADE Initialization Files", in Chapter 1 of your JADE Installation and Configuration Guide.
