Configuring Database Connections in the Workflow Manager

Configuring Database Connections in the Workflow Manager

Before you can create a session, you need to provide the Integration Service with the information it needs to connect to the source and target databases. Configure database connections in the Workflow Manager. Database connections are saved in the repository.
  1. Launch the Workflow Manager.
  2. In the Workflow Manager, select the repository in the Navigator, and then click
    Repository
    Connect
    .
  3. Enter a user name and password to connect to the repository and click
    Connect
    .
    The native security domain is selected by default.
  4. Click
    Connections
    Relational
    .
    The
    Relational Connection Browser
     dialog box appears.
  5. Click
    New
     in the
    Relational Connection Browser
     dialog box.
    The
    Select Subtype
     dialog box appears.
  6. Select the appropriate database type and click
    OK
    .
    The
    Connection Object Definition
     dialog box appears with options appropriate to the selected database platform.
  7. In the Name field, enter TUTORIAL_SOURCE as the name of the database connection.
    The Integration Service uses this name as a reference to this database connection.
  8. Enter the user name and password to connect to the database.
  9. Select a code page for the database connection.
    The source code page must be a subset of the target code page.
  10. In the Attributes section, enter the database name.
  11. Enter additional information necessary to connect to this database, such as the connect string, and click
    OK
    .
    Use the database connection information you created for the source database.
    TUTORIAL_SOURCE now appears in the list of registered database connections in the
    Relational Connection Browser
     dialog box. TUTORIAL_TARGET appears in the list after step 12.
  12. Repeat steps Configuring Database Connections in the Workflow Manager through Configuring Database Connections in the Workflow Manager to create another database connection called TUTORIAL_TARGET for the target database.
    The target code page must be a superset of the source code page.
    Use the database connection information you created for the target database.
  13. Click OK.
    TUTORIAL_SOURCE and TUTORIAL_TARGET appear in the list of registered database connections in the
    Relational Connection Browser
     dialog box.
  14. Click

You have finished configuring the connections to the source and target databases. The next step is to create a session for the mapping m_PhoneList.
