In the connection setup wizard, give your connection a name in the
Name field. This name will appear as
the database connection name under the Metadata node of the Repository tree view.
Fill in the optional Purpose and
Description fields as required. The
information you fill in the Description
field will appear as a tooltip when you move your mouse pointer over the
connection.
If needed, set the connection version and status in the
Version and Status fields
respectively. You can also manage the version and status of a repository item in
the Project Settings dialog box. For more information, see
Upgrading the version of project items
and Status management
respectively.
If needed, click the Select button next
to the Path field to select a folder under
the Db connections node to hold your newly
created database connection. Note that you cannot select a folder if you are
editing an existing database connection, but you can drag and drop a
connection to a new folder whenever you want.
Click Next when completed. The second
step requires you to fill in or edit database connection data.
