Installing JDBC Drivers
Make sure the JDBC driver is installed on the machine where you want to develop and run your JDBC client application that accesses data through the TDV Server. The TDV JDBC driver must be made available locally for each client that accesses TDV.
By default, TDV Server listens on port 9401 for JDBC connections, and the JDBC drivers are installed in subdirectories of the installation’s root directory.
Note: Some clients might not be JDBC-4.0 compliant. An older version of the csjdbc.jar is available from Support to support older JDBC interfaces. If you have a previous release of TDV, you can use the csjdbc.jar file provided with that release.
To install the JDBC drivers to establish the connections between client applications and the TDV Server
1. If TDV Server is running on a machine that has a Windows firewall, the firewall must be configured to allow JDBC clients to connect to the server through Studio.
2. Obtain and install the JDBC driver on the machine with the client application that accesses data through the TDV Server. Depending on the requirements of your organization, use your organizations copy of the JDBC driver or obtain the TDV JDBC driver from the TDV installer distribution. The TDV JDBC driver must be placed in an appropriate directory of any client application that connects to the TDV Server.
3. If you are using the AIX platform, see the TDV Administration Guide for information on “Configuring TDV for AIX Platforms.”
