Configure Data Sources
Specifying JDBC Providers and Data Sources
Overview
There are two ways to configure Database Providers for deployment.
The first is to use Database Libraries from within the framework server. A Database Library contains one or more Data Sources, and is stored on the framework server as an XML file. On deployment, this file is read by the jython framework and Data Sources and Database Providers are configured in the target cell.
The second method allows you to add Database Providers and Data Sources directly into the jython file using properties (name/value pairs).
This page considers the second case only.
Each set of name/value pairs is terminated with _n where n is an integer, incrementing from 1 and referencing the next Provider and DataSource to be created or modified.
Provider and Datasource creation policy
By default the RapidDeploy Jython framework will create both the JDBC provider and the datasource in one step, if you want to omit any of these sub-steps you can do so by using the following variables:
omitProviderCreation_1 = "true" omitDatasourceCreation_1 = "true"
Note that if you want to create only the datasource and omit the provider creation sub-step you still need to set the jdbcname_1 variable in order to indicate the provider used by the datasource to be created.

In order to create or modify data sources properties you need to declare the property with the prefix "dsProp_" and the suffix "_n", where n is the number of the data source being affected:
dsProp_propertyKey_1="propertyValue"

Here's an example of how to use the data source properties for the "Advanced DB2 features":

Specifies whether to activate re-authentication of connections. This option requires implementation of the doConnectionSetupPerTransaction method on the data store helper class for the JDBC provider that supports this data source.
