Impacts on Utility Programs

In this chapter, we describe the Berkeley DB Server - the standalone server program. It begins by explaining how to start and stop the server. Also, how to enable SSL. Then it describes the configuration files used by the server. Finally, it lists the constraints of Berkeley DB utility programs when used on environments and databases managed by the server.

System Requirements

The server program requires JDK 8 or above, slf4j, log4j, Apache Thrift's Java library, and Berkeley DB Java library. All libraries are required at both compile and run time.

Note

The appropriate versions of the third-party libraries slf4j, log4j and Apache Thrift are bundled in the release package. You do not need to install them separately.
