Configure and use the jt400.jar file

 

Procedure

1. Download the jt400.jar file from the JTOpen URL at http://www-1.ibm.com/servers/eserver/iseries/toolbox/downloads.htm. Place it in a directory on your workstation such as C:\JDBC_Drivers\Toolbox.

2. Open the administrative console.

3. Select Environment.

4. Select Managed WebSphere Variables.

5. Set the managed variable OS400_TOOLBOX_JDBC_DRIVER_PATH at the Node level.

6. Double click OS400_TOOLBOX_JDBC_DRIVER_PATH.

7. Set the value to the full directory path to the jt400.jar file downloaded in step one. Do not include jt400.jar in this value. For example

   OS400_TOOLBOX_JDBC_DRIVER_PATH == "C:\JDBC_Drivers\Toolbox"
   

   When you choose a Toolbox driver from the list of possible resource providers the Classpath field looks like:

   Classpath == ${OS400_TOOLBOX_JDBC_DRIVER_PATH}/jt400.jar
