This section provides an overview of the Marketing Platform utilities, including some details that apply to all of the utilities and which are not included in the individual utility descriptions.
Marketing Platform utilities are located in the
tools/bin directory under your
Marketing Platform installation.
The Marketing Platform provides the following utilities.
All of the Marketing Platform utilities except
encryptPasswords interact with the
Marketing Platform system tables. To connect to the system table database, these utilities use the following connection information, which is set by the installer using information provided when the
Marketing Platform was installed. This information is stored in the
jdbc.properties file, located in the
tools/bin directory under your
Marketing Platform installation.
In addition, these utilities rely on the JAVA_HOME environment variable, set either in the
setenv script located in the
tools/bin directory of your
Marketing Platform installation, or on the command line. The
Marketing Platform installer should have set this variable automatically in the
setenv script, but it is a good practice to verify that the
JAVA_HOME variable is set if you have a problem running a utility. The JDK must be the Sun version (not, for example, the JRockit JDK available with WebLogic).
