To generate processes for the Job server, you need the provider, connection parameters and the authentication data. In the default case, this information is determined from the database connection data.
If a Job server has no direct connection to the database, but works with an application server:
TIP: Label one set of connection data for the application server as a Fallback connection. This connection data is used if you do not enter any reference to concrete connection data on the Job server.
Determining the connection data during process generation
-
The connection data from the database information is used for all Job servers with a direct data connection.
-
Connection data for Job servers without a direct database connection is determined as follows:
-
Connection data that is entered on the Job server.
-
Connection data that is labeled as a fallback connection.
-
Connection data that is entered in the database information.
