The JDBC data source information is used by Content Engine to connect
to Global Configuration Data and object store databases. Configuration Manager provides two
tasks for configuring the JDBC data sources: Configure GCD JDBC Data
Sources and Configure Object Store JDBC Data Sources.
The procedure for editing the Configure GCD JDBC Data Sources
task and the Configure Object Store JDBC Data Sources task is the
same. To complete the Content Engine configuration, you must configure the GCD data sources
and the data sources for each object store.
- Open either the GCD data source task or the object store
data source task for editing.
- Double-click Configure GCD JDBC Data Sources.
- Double-click Configure Object Store JDBC Data Sources.
- Provide the property values for your database. Place
your mouse on a field name to view the property description.
- Optional: WebSphere® Application
Server and Oracle WebLogic Server only. Click Test
Database Connection to test the connection to the database
by using the database user name, database server name, database name,
port number, and password that you provided. The test
does not create the data sources.
- Select to save your changes. Saving your changes
to disk does not apply the settings to the application server.
