The following sections describe the required steps that you should follow to create and install a Database Driver and to create a Data Source under this driver:
To create and install a JDBC Provider:
From the left hand tree, select Resources > JDBC Providers. The JDBC Provider page appears in the right side of the window.
Browse to select the node, server, or both on which the BI Monitor will be deployed, and then click Apply.
You can create the JDBC provider on the node or the server level. It is recommended to create the JDBC provider on the server level as BI Monitor is deployed on the server level.
Click New. The JDBC Provider > New page appears.
Use the information in the tables above to select the JDBC provider, Database type, and Implementation type.
Click Next. The configuration page of the selected JDBC Provider type appears.
Type JDBC Provider name in the Name box.
Type a description for the new JDBC Provider in the Description box (Optional)
In the Classpath box, change the contents of this field to contain the path and name of the JDBC Driver file according to your Database Server type.
If you are using DB2 as your Database engine, change the implementation class name to be as the following:
In case of Pool Datasource connection, COM.ibm.db2.jdbc.DB2ConnectionPoolDataSource
In case of XA Datasource connection, COM.ibm.db2.jdbc.DB2XADataSource
The implementation class names are case sensitive
Click Apply.
Click Save in the top menu bar to save your changes. The Save page appears.
Click Save.
