SQL Server related connection types include: SQL Server.
There are two different templates for connection type SQL Server: sqlserver and odbc_sqlserver. Connection details for each template are explained next.
LIBRARY_PATH
On Windows platforms you must enter the path to the SQL Server libraries.
Failure to enter the correct path to the libraries may result in a pop-up window during a scan on the server where OnePoint Diagnostics is installed. The pop-up window will mention that SQL Server libraries cannot be found in the path.
SQLPATH
Enter the correct value for SQLPATH (the location of your SQL Server software environment) in this field. Ask your SQL Server DBA if you don't know the SQLPATH value for the database you want to scan.
SERVER
Enter the server name of the machine on which the SQL Server database is located. A common value is the hostname.
DATABASE
Enter the database name of the SQL Server database where your Baan data is stored. A common value is: baandb.
NT_AUTHENTICATION, USERNAME, PASSWORD
If NT_AUTHENTICATION is set to YES then no value for username and password has to be provided to connect to the SQL Server database. If NT_AUTHENTICATION is set to NO then a user name and password must be provided. The user must have at least dba read permissions on all Baan and system tables.
PATH
Normally you leave this field blank. Theoretically you could use this field to extend the environment variable PATH - visible only to the OnePoint Diagnostics application. However use it exclusively if explicitly instructed by a support engineer.
If a SQL Server ODBC driver is present on your system you can also choose the template odbc_sqlserver to connect to the SQL Server database (otherwise, choose the template sqlserver, see above).
LIBRARY_PATH
On Windows platforms you must enter the path to the SQL Server libraries.
Failure to enter the correct path to the libraries may result in a pop-up window during a scan on the server where OnePoint Diagnostics is installed. The pop-up window will mention that SQL Server libraries cannot be found in the path.
DSN
Enter the ODBC Data Source Name (DSN). Ask your DBA for the Data Source Name. You may also be helped by the section How to determine the ODBC Data Source Name.
SQLPATH
Enter the correct value for SQLPATH (the location of your SQL Server software environment) in this field. Ask your SQL Server DBA if you don't know the SQLPATH value for the database you want to scan.
DATABASE
Enter the database name of the SQL Server database where your Baan data is stored. A common value is: baandb.
UID, PWD
Enter the SQL Server ODBC user name and password to logon to the SQL Server database. The user must have at least dba read permissions on all Baan and system tables.
PATH
Normally you leave this field blank. Theoretically you could use this field to extend the environment variable PATH - visible only to the OnePoint Diagnostics application. However use it exclusively if explicitly instructed by a support engineer.
