To create a database connection cache for the DB2 database:
-
In the Database Configuration dialog box, select DB2 from the Provider list.
-
Enter any text as the cache name.
-
Input the IP address or machine name to Host.
-
Input the port number (50000 by default).
-
Enter the User ID and Password.
-
Enter the database name to Connect to a database.
-
Click View License Terms to view the driver license and then select the check box of "I have read and agree to the license ...".
-
Click Test connection to make sure the connection is successful.
The "Allow dynamic connection using the transaction LogID and LogPass" option allows the application to use the LogID and LogPass property values of the Transaction object to log in to the database server (instead of using the values in the User name and Password fields). For more, refer to Using LogID and LogPass properties.
