Selecting the Database Administration button lets you
define the parameters for connection to the CDM databases you wish to
use (see "Connecting an ORACLE or DB2 Database to Your CATIA Version 5
Environment" in the ENOVIAVPM User's Guide).
Checking the Database Server Dictionary box lets you
define a CDM dictionary associated with a server.

PSN Display Options
Checking the Automatic Highlight in PSN box sets the
automatic highlight for the identification of models in a PSN graph from
a Version 5 session and vice-versa. This means that whenever
you select one or more models in a PSN graph they are automatically
highlighted in the Version 5 session. When selected in a Version 5
session, they are automatically highlighted in the corresponding PSN
graph.
If you do decide to use this option you should be
aware that performance will be adversely affected.
Customize Session Building
Checking the Load all EnoviaVPM properties box means
that when a session is built all the properties visualized in VPM
that have not been mapped will be loaded as user properties.
If you do decide to use this option you should
be aware that performance will be adversely affected.
When the cache mode is on, the user properties in the
Product: Added Properties section of the Properties
dialog box are not visible because the Part reference is not
loaded.
Checking the Disable Applicative Object management
box speeds up performance.
If you do decide to use this option you should
be aware that V5 applicative objects such as publications,
constraints, etc. will neither be saved nor stored in the
database.
V4 CDM Cache Management
Checking the Work with the V4 CDM cache system box
enables you to use the cache system and provide the location of the V4
local cache in the field CDM
Cache path.
You can also specify the access method in the field Access
method.
