JDBC Data Sources: Create a credential mapping
Configuration Options Related Tasks
This page creates a credential mapping, which enables you to map a WebLogic Server user ID to a remote system user ID, typically a database user account.
If credential mapping is enabled on the data source, when an application requests a database connection from the data source, WebLogic Server determines the current WebLogic Server user ID and then sets the mapped database ID as a light-weight client ID on the database connection.
Configuration Options
Name Description WLS User Enter the WebLogic Server user ID that you want to map to a database user ID.
Remote User Enter the database user ID to map to the selected WebLogic Server user.
Remote Password Enter the database password for the database user ID.
