To test a data source connection:
- In the SQL Configuration
Editor dialog box, from the Sources list, select a data source and choose Test
Connect.
- In the Database Logon dialog box, supply the user ID and password required to connect
you to your database server.
Note: The Database Logon dialog box does not appear if your user ID and
password appear in the Source Setup dialog
box. This user ID and password may or may not be the same as your network user
ID and password. Also, your database user ID and password may differ from your TSD user ID
and password. See your database administrator if you don't know your database user ID or
password.
- Choose OK.
Result: If the connection is successful, the Test Connect message
appears. If connectivity is not established, you see an error message.
- Did you receive a successful connection message?
- If yes, choose OK.
- If no, check the parameters in the Source
Setup Dialog box or test the connectivity with the SQL tool specific to your DBMS.
- Do you need to configure the data source for additional client workstations?
