GNATS can support multiple databases on one host. The options
--directory=
or -d
are available to specify the GNATS
database to access for the various tools See section Invoking the GNATS tools.
The GNATS daemon can switch between databases by using the
CHDB database
command. This will cause the GNATS daemon
to access the newly specified database. The daemon will verify that you
have access to the requested database as determined by
`gnatsd.conf'.
The database should be specified using a fully qualified path name. The
file `/etc/gnats-db.conf' can be used to specify aliases for the
fully qualified path names. These aliases can be used with the
--directory=
or -d
option or as a database name for the
daemon. The following is an example of a `/etc/gnats-db.conf'
file.
# list of GNATS databases and aliases # # Field 1 - fully qualified path to database # Field 2 - a comma separated list of aliases /usr/local/gnats/standard-db:normal,standard,regular /usr/local/gnats/alternate-db:alt /home/gnats/special-db:special |
The GNATS daemon supports two other commands DBLS
and
DBLA
to list the fully qualified databases and aliases,
respectively.
