Under certain circumstances, you might want to restrict the drivers available with a P6 EPPM installation. For example, if you want to prevent users from installing standalone instances of the application. It is possible to exclude unnecessary drivers from the installation whether you install from the installation wizard, deploy ClickOnce, or install from the command line, and for both JSON and XML requests.
Install Wizard: During the advanced installation process, in the Primavera Professional Common Components branch of the installer, you can expand the Drivers section and clear the options for any drivers you do not wish to install.
ClickOnce Deployments: In the P6 Pro Enterprise Deployment Utility, in the Supported Drivers section, clear the options for any drivers you do not wish to install.
Command Line Installations: Use the /action parameter with the value DeleteDriver and specify the driver type to delete using the /dbtype parameter to update the bootstrap file. For example:
Primavera.Launcher.DBConfig.exe /action=DeleteDriver /dbtype=SQLite
JSON and XML: Use UnsupprtedDrivers tags to enclose a list of string tags containing the names of the drivers to exclude. Valid driver names are Oracle, SQLServer, CloudServer, and SQLite. For example:
XML
<UnsupportedDrivers>
<string>SQLite</string>
</UnsupportedDrivers>
JSON:
"UnsupportedDrivers":["SQLite", "Oracle"]
