Create and manage JDBC providers to create data sources for pre-existing, external snap-in database. Use the JDBC providers to upload drivers to the Avaya Breeze® platform clusters, which enables the use of multiple database variants like Oracle, MySQL.
As a user, download the JDBC driver jar file that is compatible with the database version. Download this file from the database vendor website.
Note:
JDBC providers or data sources created by using incorrect or incompatible jar files fail. Ensure that you use the correct jar file and the appropriate implementation class for the jar.
Use the JDBC jar file to create the JDBC provider resource. The JDBC provider creates the JDBC provider service, which is displayed on the Service Management page. Select and install the JDBC provider service on your cluster. After you install the provider, create the JDBC data source by using the provider. Ensure that you specify a unique JNDI name for the data source. You can access the data source using the JNDI name.
Important:
After you create or modify a JDBC provider or a data source, you must restart all the Avaya Breeze® platform servers in the cluster. To restart a server, on the Server Administration page, select the servers that you want to restart and click Shutdown SystemReboot.
