Logging In to the DAC

The DAC application connects to a database called the DAC repository, which contains definitions of DAC application objects. When you log in to DAC for the first time, you need to configure the database connection to the DAC repository. You can also connect to multiple DAC repositories by configuring multiple database connections, but only one DAC repository is active at a time.

To log in to DAC for the first time

  1. Navigate to the directory where DAC is installed and double-click startclient.bat.
  2. In the Login ... dialog box, select Configure.
  3. In the Configuring ... dialog box, select Create Connection, and then click Next.
  4. In the Connection Details area of the Configuring ... dialog box, enter the appropriate information for the database to which you want to connect.
  5. Click Test Connection to make sure you configured the database correctly.

    When you connect to a database for the first time, a DAC repository schema is created if it does not already exist.
