The Database Configuration wizard enables you to change the database connection settings you specified when you installed P6.
The database you select during configuration stores one or more P6 EPPM configurations, each one specifying a set of parameters that determine how P6 operates. During configuration, you select an existing P6 EPPM configuration or create a new one. Later, you can use the Database Configuration wizard to select a different P6 EPPM configuration or create a new one.
Notes:
- After selecting a different P6 EPPM configuration or creating a new configuration, you must stop and restart the P6 application server for the changes to take effect.
- You should protect the Database Configuration file (dbconfigpv) for security reasons. Depending on which method you used to protect the file, you might have to relocate the file to the production server to run the wizard after implementation. See "Files to Protect after Implementation" in the P6 EPPM Security Guide.
