    dbn=DATABASE_NAME"
    
  3. (UNIX) Execute the following command to create the DSN for the CMS Repository database.
    $SQLANYWHERE_DIR/dbdsn -y -w $DATABASE_NAME -c "uid=$BOE_UID;
    server=$SQLANYWHERE_SERVER;host=$SQLANYWHERE_HOST:$SQLANYWHERE_PORT;
    dbn=$DATABASE_NAME"
    
  4. (Windows) Execute the following command to create the DSN for the Audit database.
    SQLANYWHERE_DIR\dbdsn.exe -y -ws AUDIT_DATABASE_NAME -c "uid=BOE_UID;
    server=SQLANYWHERE_SERVER;host=SQLANYWHERE_HOST:SQLANYWHERE_PORT;
    dbn=AUDIT_DATABASE_NAME"
    
  5. (UNIX) Execute the following command to create the DSN for the Audit database.
