Configuring service.props
About Configuring service.props 
The service.props file is used to configure adapter behavior. service.props is located in the \
config
 directory located 
under the Adapter’s GUID directory, You can create both the directory and file if it does not yet exist. Properties that can 
be specified in service.props control things like logging and connection configuration. Many of the properties are specific 
to certain adapters; others are common across all adapters.
service.props Properties
The table below lists many of the parameters that can be specified in service.props. Some properties apply to all 
adapters (shaded in the table) and some properties are adapter-specific as indicated by the Applicable Adapter(s) 
column. The properties are listed in alphabetical order.
Property
Applicable 
Adapter(s)
Default
What It Controls
BYPASS_SEC_VALIDATION
Oracle Apps
N
If set to Y, the secondary user validation is bypassed. If 
not, secondary user validation is performed.
CLASSPATH
All
<none>
(Optional) – The path to the JDBC driver. If the default 
CLASSPATH used when the Adapter process is started 
does not include an appropriate JDBC driver jar required 
to connect to the PowerCenter Repository Database, you 
will need to specify this service.props configuration
CONN_SYNC
Informatica, 
Oracle Apps, 
SAP
N
Setting this flag to Y allows synchronous connections 
without overloading the RDOnly Thread. If set to N, the 
adapter might stop trying to reconnect after an outage or 
downtime.
DISCONN_ON_LOSTCONN
Informatica
N
Setting this flag to Y avoids an unnecessary logout call to 
the Informatica server when the connection is lost. This 
logout call usually hangs.
EnableDynamicPollingInterval
All
N
Use to avoid frequent polling on long-running jobs. 
When set to Y in service.props of a particular adapter, 
these properties are enabled: 
MinDynamicPollInterval—Minimum value should be 5 
seconds.
MaxDynamicPollIntervalInMin—Maximum value should 
be 5 minutes.
PercentOfEstDuration—Default value is 5.
