GeoMedia SQL Server Warehouse Writer Parameters
Database Connection
Connections store authentication information. For general information about sharing database connections, please see Using Database Connections.
Note that different subsets of the Database Connection parameters below are made available in different contexts.
This parameter specifies a database connection for the reader through a drop-down menu. The Add Database Connection option in the menu allows you to create a new connection. The connection requires a name that describes the connection.
The following characters are not allowed in connection names: ^ \ / : * ? " < > | & = ' + % #
The new connection can be made visible only to the current user, or can be shared among multiple users.
Connection Parameters
Specifies the name of the server hosting the Microsoft SQL Server that stores the GeoMedia warehouse.
The name of the database to connect to.
When connecting through a Windows user account, select Windows Authentication. The database can validate the account name and password using the Windows principal token in the operating system.
The user account is retrieved by Windows, so if you choose Windows Authentication, the Username and Password parameters are ignored.
Select SQL Server Authentication to proceed with specifying login credentials through the Username and Password parameters.
When Authentication is set to SQL Server Authentication, enter the username and password to access the database.
Text Options
Specifies that features of FME type fme_text are written in plain text.
If this parameter is not selected, the writer formats text objects in rich text format (RTF) to insert the text size as part of the object, since text size cannot be set any other way during translation.
Specifies the RTF font size, in points.
GeoMedia Warehouse Version
Specifies the version of the GeoMedia warehouse to write to. By default, the writer determines the version of the existing warehouse and writes to it regardless of this setting. If the warehouse does not exist, or the existing version is not supported by FME, the writer creates one according to the version specified.
