InstallAnywhere 2018 » Advanced Designer » Organization » Hosts
When you add a database server host in the Hosts view of the Organization page, you can customize its settings.
Tip • Note that the host settings that are available in the Hosts view are also available when you select the host in the Install view on the Sequence page. Any changes that you make to the settings in one view are reflected instantly in the other.
The Database Server customizer includes the following settings.
Setting |
Description |
Server Type |
Select the type of database server with which your installer must connect. Note • Generic JDBC connections enable your installer to connect to database servers for which InstallAnywhere does not have built-in support. |
Custom Connection String |
This setting is available if you select Generic JDBC Connection option for the Server Type setting. Enter the string that your installer should use to connect to the database that you are targeting. The connection string must work with the database server’s syntax requirements. |
Database Host Name |
Specify a name for the selected database host. This is typically useful if your installer runs SQL scripts on more than one database host. The name should be unique across all database server hosts. |
Custom Driver Settings |
To provide custom values for the JDBC Driver Class setting or the Dependencies setting, select this check box. |
JDBC Driver Class |
Indicate the class for the JDBC driver that the database server supports. This setting is enabled if the Custom Driver Settings check box is selected. |
Dependencies |
Specify the libraries that you want to bundle as dependencies for the selected database server host. This setting is enabled if the Custom Driver Settings check box is selected. If InstallAnywhere does not provide the driver for the selected database type, a More on drivers link is displayed in this area. You can click this link to visit the driver vendor’s Web site. |
Add JAR or ZIP |
To add to your project dependencies for the selected database server, click this button and then browse to the .jar or .zip file that you want to include. |
Remove |
To delete a dependency in the Dependencies setting, select it and then click the Remove button. |
Note • For information about running a SQL script on a database server, see Run SQL Script Action.
