Before creating JDBC datasources, you must define the authentication information for
the JDBC connections.
You must create two sets of authentication data: one for the Oracle BPM Directory
Database and one for Oracle BPM Engine's back-end database.
Note: The following procedures are applicable to both single-node and clustered configurations.
-
Login to WebSphere's Administration Console. By default, it runs on http://host:9060/ibm/console.
-
Go to , expand the Java Authentication and
Authorization Service section on the right pane and click on J2C
authentication data.
-
Click New to create a new entry for Oracle BPM Directory
database.
Enter the following fields:
| Option |
Value |
| Alias |
Oracle BPM Directory DB Auth |
| User ID |
The JDBC user id to access Oracle BPM Directory Database. |
| Password |
The password for the above user to access Oracle BPM Directory
Database. |
You must enter the same user id and password you specified when creating the Oracle BPM
Directory database using the Configuration
Wizard.
-
Click OK to save.
-
Click New to create a new entry for Oracle BPM Engine
database.
Enter the following fields:
| Option |
Description |
| Alias |
Oracle BPM Engine DB Auth |
| User ID |
The JDBC user id to access Oracle BPM Engine Database. |
| Password |
The password for the above user to access Oracle BPM Engine
Database. |
You must enter the same user id and password you specified when creating the Oracle BPM
Engine database using the Configuration
Wizard.
-
Click OK to save.

Click on Save to persist your WebSphere configuration
changes.
The new J2C authentication data entries are ready to be used from a JDBC Datasource
configuration.
