Use the Connect / Edit System Dialog Box

This table shows reference information for the Connect / Edit System dialog box:

Description

Example

Field

A label to identify this Neoview platform. The name can be up to 32
characters in length and consist of letters, digits, and the underscore
character. This is a required field.

Production Sys 1

Your Name for
System

Specifies the name of the client-side or server-side data source. If no
data source is specified, or if the specified client-side data source cannot
be found, the client connects to the default server-side data source
(TDM_Default_DataSource).

DSN_PROD1

Data Source

Your user name. This is a required field.

user-465

User Name

Neoview role. Note these considerations:

If you are a

platform user

, leave this field blank.

If you are a

database user

and you leave this field blank, HPDM

uses your default role.

For database users, if you specify a role and then need to log on
using a different role, you must disconnect and specify the new role
when you reconnect to the system.

NOTE:

It is possible for database users to run multiple active sessions

while logged on as the same user but with different roles. To do this,
you must configure system definitions having different roles. See

“Add

a System Like...” (page 33)

.

ROLE.DBA

Role Name

Your Neoview password. This is a required field. For more information,
see

“Password Considerations” (page 27)

.

User
1!uPzTa4
User/Role
1!uPzTa4/98_Lzrew

Password

The DNS name or IP address for the target Neoview platform. This is
a required field.

ABC0101.abc.def.com

Host

The NDCS server port number. This is a required field.

18650

Port Number

The default schema to use if composing a query. If this field is left
blank, the default schema is either of:

The schema matching your user name, with any lowercase
characters upshifted.

The schema matching your role name, with any lowercase characters
upshifted.

Whether or not the schema is based on your user name or role name
depends on certain default settings.

CAUTION:

If the Default Schema name is a reserved word in Neoview

SQL (for example, USER), you must enclose the schema name in double
quotes (“USER”). Otherwise, the connection will fail. For a list of
reserved words, see the Neoview SQL Reference Manual.

USR

Default Schema

The installed Neoview ODBC driver to be used with this Neoview
platform. This is a required field.

HP ODBC 2.0

Driver

The certificate file to use when connecting to the system. The certificate
file can be downloaded by the driver to the client during connection.
However, if the Auto Download Certificate option is disabled, the
certificate file is not downloaded. Without a certificate file, the
connection fails. This field allows you to browse to and select a
certificate file on your workstation, if needed.

NOTE:

If you connect to a Neoview system running Release 2.4 or

earlier, this field is ignored by the driver.
