Note: The ODBC database name must not be longer than 8 characters. ODBC database configuration This section describes the procedures you must complete before Netfinity Manager can create the Netfinity Database Tables using ODBC. 1. Define the NETFIN ID so the Netfinity Database Administration can create the Netfinity Database tables with a table qualifier of NETFIN. Attention: NETFIN is a restricted user ID. The password is not retained by Netfinity Database Administration after use. Do not use this ID for exports. Notes: a.In OS/2 and Windows 95, NETFIN must either be the owner of the database or must be given administrator authority. b.In Windows NT, when exporting to DB2, NETFIN must either be the owner of the database or be defined as a system administrator through the NT User Manager for Domains or the NT User Manager. In Windows NT, when exporting to MS SQL, NETFIN must be the owner of the database or be given table create rights. 2. Create the database with the appropriate relationship with the NETFIN ID. 3. Make a database ODBC source either using the ODBC tools shipped with the operating system or the database. 4. On Windows NT, configure the Netfinity Support Program to export data using the ODBC database. a. Open Services from the Control Panel. b. Click Netfinity Support Program from the Services field, then click Startup. c. Click Automatic in the Startup Type button group. d. Click This Account in the Log On As field group. Enter in the This Account field the user name of the account that made this database an ODBC source. e. Click OK. Note: If the Event Scheduler or Alert Manager will be used to export data using ODBC, continue to have the ID which made the database an ODBC source logged on during the time Event Scheduler will be exporting data. Creating the Netfinity Manager tables To create the tables needed to enable Netfinity Manager to export data: 1. Open the Netfinity Manager Database Administration service. The Netfinity Manager Database Administration service is found in the Netfinity Manager folder or Netfinity Manager program group. Double-click this icon to open the Netfinity Manager Database Administration window. 112 Hardware Maintenance Manual: Netfinity 7600 - Type 8665 Models 1RY, 2RY

SQL Server)

For detailed information about supported ODBC platforms, see Table 18 on page

114 and Table 19 on page 115.

Note:

The ODBC database name must not be longer than 8 characters.

ODBC database configuration

This section describes the procedures you must complete before Netfinity Manager

can create the Netfinity Database Tables using ODBC.

Define the NETFIN ID so the Netfinity Database Administration can create the

Netfinity Database tables with a table qualifier of NETFIN.

Attention:

NETFIN is a restricted user ID.

The password is not retained by

Netfinity Database Administration after use.

Do not use this ID for

exports.

Notes:

a.In OS/2 and Windows 95, NETFIN must either be the owner of the database or

must be given administrator authority.

b.In Windows NT, when exporting to DB2, NETFIN must either be the owner of

the database or be defined as a system administrator through the NT User

Manager for Domains or the NT User Manager.

In Windows NT, when exporting to MS SQL, NETFIN must be the owner of

the database or be given table create rights.

Create the database with the appropriate relationship with the NETFIN ID.

Make a database ODBC source either using the ODBC tools shipped with the

operating system or the database.

On Windows NT, configure the Netfinity Support Program to export data using

the ODBC database.

Open

Services

from the Control Panel.

Click

Netfinity Support Program

from the

Services

field, then click

Startup

Click

Automatic

in the Startup Type button group.

Click

This Account

in the

Log On As field

group.

Enter in the

This Account

field the user name of the account that made this database an ODBC source.

Click

Note:

If the Event Scheduler or Alert Manager will be used to export data using

ODBC, continue to have the ID which made the database an ODBC source

logged on during the time Event Scheduler will be exporting data.

Creating the Netfinity Manager tables

To create the tables needed to enable Netfinity Manager to export data:

Open the Netfinity Manager Database Administration service.

The Netfinity Manager Database Administration service is found in the Netfinity

Manager folder or Netfinity Manager program group. Double-click this icon to

open the Netfinity Manager Database Administration window.
