      - Connection
        The Connection settings define the connection configuration for an adapter.
      - Command Line
        When the Use Command Line property is set, the Command Line card setting provides the adapter-specific commands to connect to the data source and the ouput of the card data.
      - Action properties
        Each Link adapter defines a set of properties that are configured to specify the source of the data for the input card.

  Files are used in various places within HCL Link. HCL Link allows files to be uploaded to the HCL Linkserver.

Failure Action

The Failure Action setting specifies the location of the target data if the map, burst, or card does not complete successfully.

The exact meaning and availability of the options for this setting are adapter specific. The default value is Rollback.

The Failure Action setting works in conjunction with the Scope setting, which defines when to apply the action specified with the Failure Action setting.

Value: Description
Rollback: Any changes made during map processing are rolled-back and the original state of the data is restored. If the map, burst, or card does not complete successfully, reverses any changes made to the target data during map execution.
Commit: If the map, burst, or card does not complete successfully, commit any changes that were made to the target data during map execution. If the map fails, send the message produced for the output card to the specified message queue.
