Editing an Optim directory connection in the connection manager

When you create an Optim™ directory with the Optim Configuration program, an Optim directory connection is created in the connection manager. After you create an Optim directory, associate the Optim directory connection with the Java™ Database Connectivity (JDBC) driver for the Optim directory. You can use the Optim directory connection only after the Optim directory connection is associated with a JDBC driver.

You must use a user account with ocmadmin or admin access to access the connection manager.

The connection manager must have a JDBC driver for the Optim directory database. If the connection manager does not have the correct JDBC driver, you must have the JDBC driver to upload to the connection manager. Upload the JDBC driver when you edit the Optim directory connection.

You must also have the JDBC connection properties that the connection manager can use to connect to the Optim directory database. The connection properties can include the following database properties:
  • Vendor and version
  • Host name or IP address
  • Port number
  • Schema
  • User ID and password
To edit an Optim directory connection in the connection manager:
  1. Access the connection manager in a browser and sign in.
  2. Click the Optim directory connection that you want to edit and click Edit.
  3. Complete the steps in the wizard.
