Configuring database connections

SSL certificates and storage passwords can be provided in two ways: via a URL in DAP options, or through the JVM system properties. To pass options to JVM, use the relevant .sh file on Linux and JavaServerStarter.ini on Windows.

Sample connection URLs

MS SQL 2016

"jdbc:sqlserver://MSSQL2016TLS:1433;databaseName=iwd_dm;encrypt=true;trustServerCertificate=false;trustStore=/genesys/MSSQL2016.ts;trustStorePassword=storePassword;"

JVM properties example

-Djavax.net.ssl.trustStore=/genesys/MSSQL2016.ts
-Djavax.net.ssl.trustStoreType=JKS
-Djavax.net.ssl.trustStorePassword=storePassword

For more information about configuring your database, refer to the vendor's documentation for the database that you are using.

Important

When storage passwords are provided through the URLs, they will be stored in Configuration Server as plain strings without encryption and can be seen in GAX. To hide passwords, you must use JVM properties.
