Running Database Configuration After Installation with a Cloud Connect Database Driver
To run Database Configuration after installation with a Cloud Connect database driver, complete the following steps:
- On the Select Driver Type dialog box, in the P6 Professional driver type field, select P6 Professional Cloud Connect.
Note: Select P6 Professional Cloud Connect only if you installed P6 Professional Cloud Connect in P6 EPPM to set up a remote method of access to connect to the EPPM Oracle database and the P6 APIs.
- On the Configure P6 Professional Cloud Connect Server dialog box, do the following:
- In the Database field, enter the P6 Web BRE database alias name.
- In the URL field, enter the case-sensitive URL for the P6 Professional Cloud Connect service.
- In the Read Timeout field, enter the number of seconds for the cloud read timeout. Oracle recommends a value of 900.
- If P6 Professional Cloud Connect service uses SAML, select the Use SAML SSO option.
- To improve performance with the P6 Professional Cloud Connect service, select the Enable Client-side Cache option.
Note: Contact your P6 EPPM administrator to obtain the URL for P6 Professional Cloud Connect.
- On the Enter Public Login Information dialog box, enter your public login information that was defined by your administrator.
- On the Validate Database Connection dialog box, review the settings and click Next to test the database connection.
- If the connection is successful, click Finish.
If the connection is not successful, click Back to revise the database information.
Tips
- The PrmBootStrapV2.xml file is used regardless of the Driver type selected above.
- If you create a new database alias for a module, the module’s PrmBootStrapV2.xml file is updated to reflect the change. If multiple modules are installed on one client computer, changing the database alias for one module does not affect the other modules.
- If you change the database connection settings for a database alias and multiple modules share that alias to access the database, your changes affect all the modules that share the alias.
