DatabaseStatus

Indicates the status of a Grooper database.

Remarks

The DatabaseStatus enumeration describes the current health, initialization, and compatibility of a Grooper repository database. It is used to determine whether the database can be connected, is properly initialized, and is compatible with the installed Grooper software version.

Usage

• Status is checked automatically during repository connection and maintenance operations.
• The status value guides users and administrators in troubleshooting, upgrading, or reconfiguring the repository.
• Status is visible in connection dialogs, logs, and diagnostic reports.

Configuration Guidance

• If the status is not Ok, review the details and take corrective action as indicated.
• Use the GCC connections upgrade command to upgrade databases with the NeedsUpgrade status.
• For NotInitialized or InvalidParams, verify connection settings and repository configuration.

For more information, see the documentation for Repository Connection, Root, and related database management objects.

Can be one of the following values:

Name	Value		Description
Ok	0	►	A connection can be made to the database successfully. The Ok status indicates that the database is available, properly initialized, and compatible with the current Grooper software version. Usage No action required; the repository is ready for use.
Unavailable	1	►	A connection to the database can not be established. The Unavailable status means the database server is unreachable or the connection attempt failed. Usage Check network connectivity, server status, and connection settings. May require IT or database administrator intervention.
NotInitialized	2	►	A connection can be made to the database, but the database does not contain the required tables. The NotInitialized status indicates that the database is missing required tables or has not been set up. Usage Run the repository initialization process to create necessary tables. Verify database schema and configuration.
NeedsUpgrade	3	►	The database is not compatible with the current Grooper software version. The NeedsUpgrade status means the database version is older than the installed Grooper software. Usage Use the GCC connections upgrade command to upgrade the database. Review upgrade documentation and perform backups before upgrading.
NewerVersion	4	►	The current Grooper software version is newer than the version to which this database is compatible. The NewerVersion status means the database is newer than the installed Grooper software. Usage Upgrade the Grooper software to match the database version. Contact your system administrator if unsure.
InvalidParams	5	►	Settings for this Repository Connection are invalid. The InvalidParams status indicates that the connection settings are incomplete or incorrect. Usage Review and correct the repository connection settings. Ensure all required fields are set and valid.
