B.4 Sharing database connections between <strong>Data</strong> <strong>Studio</strong> client and<br />

<strong>Data</strong> <strong>Studio</strong> web console<br />

If you plan to connect more than one instance of <strong>Data</strong> <strong>Studio</strong> full client to the same <strong>Data</strong><br />

<strong>Studio</strong> web console server it is advantageous to synchronize the database connection<br />

profiles on the clients to the database connections that are stored on the <strong>Data</strong> <strong>Studio</strong> web<br />

console. In this way the web console acts as a central repository <strong>for</strong> the database<br />

connections and is accessible to all client users that have configured their clients to access<br />

<strong>Data</strong> <strong>Studio</strong> web console <strong>for</strong> health monitoring or job management.<br />

The database connection sharing is two-way. Just as the <strong>Data</strong> <strong>Studio</strong> client user can<br />

import existing database connections from the web console, that user can also<br />

automatically add existing database connection profiles to the web console by opening the<br />

Current Application Connections, Current Table Spaces, or Current Utilities page <strong>for</strong> the<br />

selected database. You can also manually add your database connections directly in the<br />

<strong>Data</strong> <strong>Studio</strong> web console by opening the <strong>Data</strong>bases page.<br />

To synchronize the database connection profiles between two clients by using the <strong>Data</strong><br />

<strong>Studio</strong> web console as a database connection repository:<br />

1. From the first <strong>Data</strong> <strong>Studio</strong> full client, in the Administration Explorer, select the database<br />

whose connection you want to add to the web console.<br />

2. Right-click the database and select any monitoring task from the menu. You can select<br />

any one of these tasks:<br />

- Application Connections<br />

- Table Spaces<br />

- Utilities<br />

<strong>Data</strong> <strong>Studio</strong> web console opens to the page that corresponds to the selected task and<br />

you are prompted <strong>for</strong> the login credentials to connect to the database.
