RE: [fme] Direct connect to SDE in version 9

Title: Direct connect to SDE in version 9






Hi Scott, Chris,
 
Our developers tell me that we do support direct connect in 
FME2005 betas since last December. The whatsnew.txt (ftp://ftp.safe.com/fme/beta/whatsnew.txt) has a little blurb about the parameters needed to make a direct 
connection. Look for build 1555 which was when this was implemented. We 
believe that it will only be able to connect to ArcSDE v 9.0 or newer, although 
we've not tested it on anything older to prove/disprove 
this.
 
Be sure to let us know how it 
goes. Our testing on this has been 
fairly minimal and we'd appreciate some user feedback ([EMAIL PROTECTED])
 
Regards,
 
Mark

  Scott,
   
  It 
  was possible starting from ArcSDE 8.2.  At ArcGIS 9 however a valid 
  arcsde licence file will need to be read this can be a licensing issue because 
  of a 2 tier architecture, the licence will need to be read from a 
  tablspace on the database.  A database server usually has many CPU's and 
  ESRI like to cost SDE on the number of CPU's.

    I've found an old message in the FME archives 
    from Don Murray (dated 9-5-2001) stating that FME does not currently support 
    the direct connect option in SDE for version 8.1.  Is this possible for 
    version 9 of SDE?  Is this even being considered or is an SDE service 
    always going to be required to connect?
    If anyone has managed to get this to work, I 
    would really appreciate an example! 
    Cheers,
