Configuring JDBC Drivers

You must configure the JDBC drivers that ActiveMatrix BPM uses to access the ActiveMatrix BPM database and the ActiveMatrix Administrator database.

Procedure

  1. Make sure that the jar files for the required JDBC drivers are available on the primary machine. (See JDBC Drivers.)
  2. In TIBCO Configuration Tool, enter a local location for the TIBCO configuration folder (CONFIG_HOME), or click OK to use the default location.
  3. Run the Configure Third-Party Driver Wizard.
  4. Configure the JDBC driver needed for the database server that will be used to host the ActiveMatrix BPM database. This must be one of the following drivers:
    • TIBCO-enabled JDBC driver for Microsoft SQL Server 3.0 or 4.0
    • TIBCO-enabled JDBC driver for Oracle 11.2.0.4.0 or 12.1.0.1.0
      Note: ActiveMatrix 3.3.0 Hotfix-10 and above support this updated JDBC driver for use with Oracle 12.1.0.1.0.
    • TIBCO-enabled JDBC driver for IBM DB2 4.12.55
  5. If a different database server will be used to host the Administrator database, configure the JDBC driver for that database server as well.
  6. Return to the Create new configurations screen, but do not close TIBCO Configuration Tool.
