Changing database connectivity, database user and password
About this task
After installation, you can change the database of the WebSphere Partner Gateway
components. You can also change the name of the database user and the database
user’s password.
You can change the connectivity properties for the database by modifying the data
sources. The data sources are configured in the WebSphere Application Server for
use by the component applications. You can use the WebSphere Application Server
admin console to modify the data sources.
To configure the database connections used by the components, perform the
following steps:
1. Use a browser to view the administrative console.
2. Click Resources > JDBC > Data sources in the left pane of the console.
3.
Locate the data source that you want to change. Look at the JNDI names for
the sources that are available and choose the one you want to change based on
the node and server name.
4. Click the data source name to view and change the database name, host, and
port number.
5. Click JAAS-J2C authentication data and then choose an alias to view and
change the user ID and password used for the connection to the database.
6. Click OK to make the changes, and then click Save to save them.

Partner Gateway. There are some pre-defined events with specific event codes. To
view the event codes, navigate to
