Input parameters

driver

The type of this required parameter is VARCHAR(128). Specifies the data source driver class.

URI

The type of this required parameter is VARCHAR(2000). Specifies the data source connection URI.

user

The type of this optional parameter is VARCHAR(128). Specifies a data source username.

password

The type of this unencrypted optional parameter is VARCHAR(128). Specifies a data source password.

trust_store_location

The type of this optional parameter is VARCHAR(128). Specifies a placeholder in the URI for the actual location of the truststore that contains the certificate.

SSL_certificate

The type of this optional parameter is VARCHAR(32672). Specifies a data source server certificate, if required.

driver_ID

The type of this optional parameter is VARCHAR(128). Specifies the driver ID to use when you request a driver download from the API server.

node_name

The type of this required parameter is VARCHAR(32672). Specifies the names of the nodes on which the data source is defined.

Run the following query to find valid values for node_name.

SELECT * FROM DVSYS.LISTNODES;

additional_options

The type of this optional parameter is VARCHAR(32672). Specifies a comma-delimited list of extra parameters in the following format: '<key1>=<value1>, <key2>=<value2>, ...'. Supported options include EDITCID, DRIVERID, and JWTTOKEN. If you specify EDITCID, existing connection information is replaced with the new information that you provide. For example:

call DVSYS.setRdbcX('old_dsDriver', 'old_dsUrl', 'old_usr', 'newP@ssw0rd', '', '', '', 'NodeIdForMyDB2', 'EDITCID=MYSQL11941', ?, ?, ?)

DRIVERID (the ID of the driver that is to be downloaded) and JWTTOKEN (the Java web token) are used together when these parameters are set. The connector/endpoint downloads the driver from the server.

Access restrictions: Use this option to enable access restrictions Data Virtualization. Add the restrictions in the form of a nested comma-separated list of tuples specifying the type of access grantee (user, group, or role), and their names. For example:

ACCESS_RESTRICTION={U username, G groupname, R rolename}

Do not use quotation marks to wrap the names. For example, use ACCESS_RESTRICTION={G ALL USERS} instead of ACCESS_RESTRICTION={G "ALL USERS"}.

Output parameters

connection_ID

The type of this parameter is VARCHAR(20). Represents the generated connection ID for Data Virtualization.

number_of_defined_connections

The type of this parameter is INTEGER. Represents the total number of added connections.

diagnostics

The type of this parameter is VARCHAR(32672). Represents diagnostic output if a failure occurs.
