Set Up Data Sources

You can connect to a data source to read its schema and then use Connector Xpress to map the schema to a new Provisioning Server endpoint type. Connector Xpress maintains a list of data sources that you configure. You can set up JNDI or JDBC data sources.

Note: When you create a Connector Xpress project, the Connector Xpress prompts you to set up your data sources.

To set up data sources

1. Click Tools, Data Sources.

   The Select Data Source for new Project dialog appears.

2. Click Add.

   The Source Types dialog appears.

3. Select an available data source type from the list, then click OK.

   The Edit Source dialog appears, specific to the type of data source you are adding.

4. Complete the fields on the dialog, then click Test to verify your settings and authentication details.

   Depending on the authentication method chosen, a subsequent authentication dialog can appear.

   Complete the fields on this dialog to continue the test.

5. When the test has completed successfully, click OK.

   You have successfully configured the data source type you selected.
