      • /SVT - A valid domain alias from the [Domain Aliases] section of the OpenLink server component's oplrqb.ini file. Default domain aliases represent the type of database agent to which the application intends to connect, e.g., DB2, Informix 2000, Oracle 8.1.x. Custom aliases may be any string.
      • /APPLICATION - The Application name. Enables connectivity when restrictive server side rules screen by application name.
      • /FBS - (also /FETCHBUFFERSIZE) The number of rows to return during one fetch operation.

      • /OPTIONS - Optional connection attribute passes specialized database-native client connection parameters, such as Progress socket parameters, Oracle SQL*Net Service Names, Ingres vnodes, remote Informix instance names, or DB2 remote database aliases.. Not necessary when ConnectOptions are set in the Broker Rulebook.
      • /DRIVER - An ODBC Driver name wrapped in braces ("{ }"). Used for DSN-Less connections to remote ODBC Drivers.
