Use this page to modify JDBC provider settings.
Resources > JDBC Providers > JDBC_provider.
Important: If you use this page to modify the class path or native library path of an existing JDBC provider: After you apply and save the new settings, restart every application server within the scope of that JDBC provider for the new configuration to work. Otherwise, you receive a data source failure message.
The scope of the JDBC provider; data sources that are created with this JDBC provider inherit this scope.
Configuration tab
The name of the resource provider.
| Data type | String |
Specifies a text description for the resource provider.
| Data type | String |
Specifies a list of paths or JAR file names which together form the location for the resource provider classes.
For example, D:/SQLLIB/java/db2java.zip .
Class path entries are separated by using the ENTER key and must not contain path separator characters (such as ';' or ':'). Class paths contain variable (symbolic) names which you can substitute using a variable map. Check the driver installation notes for the specific required JAR file names.
| Data type | String |
Specifies a list of paths that forms the location for the resource provider native libraries.
Native path entries are separated by using the ENTER key and must not contain path separator characters (such as ';' or ':'). Native paths can contain variable (symbolic) names which you can substitute using a variable map.
| Data type | String |
The Java class name of the JDBC driver implementation.
This class is available in the driver file mentioned in the class path description above. For example, COM.ibm.db2.jdbc.DB2XADataSource.
Note: If you modify the implementation class name of the JDBC provider after you have created the provider, you might disconnect the provider from the template used to create it. As a result, data sources created from this JDBC provider do not have an associated template; manually configure a working data source through setting custom properties.
