Task 2.3 Add Database Drivers for FAS

The File-AID Services Configuration Utility allows you to install additional database drivers in the event you did not select a database type during the initial installation but now find the need to configure a database.

The following databases are supported and can have their drivers added via this utility:

• Derby (installed by default and required for Data Privacy security database)
• IBM Db2
• Oracle
• Microsoft SQL Server/Sybase

For Windows

1. Select Start > Programs > BMC File-AID Services > Configuration shortcut to invoke the utility.
2. Select the Database Drivers tab.
3. Check any database types that you need. (For IBM Db2, provide the location of the folder containing the db2jcc4.jar JDCB driver file and the appropriate corresponding license files for Db2 UDB on LUW or z/OS. For Oracle, accept the license agreement.)
4. Click OK.
5. Restart File-AID Services service to apply the changes.

For Linux

1. In the directory containing the installed FAS, issue the shell command ./runServerConfig.sh
2. Check any database types you need. (For IBM Db2, provide the location of the folder containing the db2jcc4.jar JDCB driver file and the appropriate corresponding license files for Db2 UDB on LUW or z/OS. For Oracle, accept the license agreement.)
3. Stop and restart File-AID Services service to apply the changes. Refer to Control FAS.
