The Database Location policy contains the location of the Inventory database. You can associate the Database object with a container under which the Inventory Service object is located through using the Service Location Package or with an Inventory server through using the Server Package.
NOTE:If you configure the Service Location Package and the Server Package, the Server Package settings override the Service Location Package settings.
To associate the Database object with a container under which the Inventory Service object is located:
In ConsoleOne, right-click the Service Location Package, then click
to display the Policies page.Select the check box under the
column for the ZENworks Database policy.Click
to display the page.Browse to the DN of the Inventory Database object (Inventory database_server_name), then click .
For a Sybase database, the database object is automatically created during the Server Inventory installation unless you are installing on a Windows server without eDirectory installed. To manually create the database object, see Manually Creating the Sybase Inventory Database Object.
For an Oracle database, you must create the database object and configure the object. For more information, see Setting Up the Oracle Inventory Database.
For an MS SQL database, you must configure the database object. For more information, see Setting Up the MS SQL Server 2000 or MS SQL Server 2005 Inventory Database.
