Both those names are determined dynamically when the server and database are started. There are several ways you can determine them:

 

First, if you can connect to the database, you can ask it (but that might be a Catch 22 situation):

 

SELECT PROPERTY ( 'Name' ) AS ServerName,

       DB_PROPERTY ( 'Name' ) AS DatabaseName;

ServerName,DatabaseName

'inventory16_xps','inventory16'

 

Second, if you can see the command line that started the database, you may see this:

 

...dbsrv16 ... -n ServerName ... c:\path\dbfile.db ... -n DatabaseName

 

If the first -n exists then that is the ServerName.

 

If the first -n does not exist then the ServerName is the same as the DatabaseName (to be determined).

 

If the second -n exists then that is the DatabaseName.

 

If the second -n does not exist then the DatabaseName is the same as the file name "dbfile".

 

In many cases neither -n is specified so dbfile is both the ServerName and EngineName.

 

Third, if you can see the diagnostic console log window or dbsrv16 -o file.txt then it displays both names.
