DB2 | jdbc:wm:db2://server:{50000|port};databaseName=database [;option=value]... For DB2, if you are going to create database components in a schema other than the default schema for the specified database user, you must specify these connection options in the URL: ;AlternateId=schema ;"InitializationString=(SET CURRENT PATH=current_path,schema)" AlternateID is the name of the default schema used to qualify unqualified database objects in dynamically prepared SQL statements. If you are creating Optimize database components (that is, Analysis and ProcessTracker), you must specify schema using all uppercase letters. In addition, you must specify the options CreateDefaultPackage=true, ReplacePackage=true, and DynamicSections=3000. These settings will affect all database components in the same schema or database. |
